Volume of A Prism
V=Bh

Example
A Aquarium is in a right rectangular prism and has demensions of 20 x 48 x 52 feet. It is Given that 1 gallon is approximatly 0.134 cubic feet. How many gallons of water does the aquarium hold? 1 gallon of water is approximatly 8.33 pounds, how much will the water weigh?

//Volume of the aquarium// V=Bh=lwh=(20)(48)(52)= 49,920 cubic feet //approximate volume in gallons and then divide by 0.134// V=49,920/0.134 V is approximatly 372,537.31 //To approximate the weight multiply it by 8.33// Weight is approximatly (372,537.31)(8.33) approximatly 3,103,235.792 pounds [|]
