Question

Alaine has 1 gallon of paint. She is going to pour it into a paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 5 cm deep.

(1 gallon = 231 in3, 1 inch = 2.54 cm)

Which of the following scenarios will happen?

The paint will not fill the tray by 369 cm3.

The paint will not fill the tray by 5.22 in3.

The paint will fill the tray exactly.

The paint will overfill the tray by 5.22 in3.

Answer 1

volume of tray in inches:

(10)*(12)*(5/2.54) = V

X in^3 = 369 cm^3 / (2.54^3 cm^3 / in^3)

Answer 2

Do some math, and you should be able to figure the answer from that

Answer 3

its 3 oclock in the morning where im at im just trying to get this stuff done lol

Answer 4

TRAY
10" x 12" x 5 cm =
25.4 x 30.48 x 5cm =
3,870.96 cubic cm
=236.22 cubic inches

ONE GALLON
231 cubic inches
so the tray is bigger than one gallon by 5.22 cubic inches
