See that "show your work" stuff?  You should do that.

I really don't understand how to do it

anonymous · Answer

@tkhunny I really just need an explanation

tkhunny · Answer

Well, then provide one.  What's your plan?  How did you do Part A?  Where is Part B?

tkhunny · Answer

Total Volume = 12 * 8 * (9/2.54) CI

Unfortunately, we are not told if 9 is the height.  Is it?  I guess we might be able to assume that it is, as it is given last.

12 cups = 12 * 144 CI = 12 * 8 * What?

Work it out.  Go without fear.  You can't break the equation.
