Answer:
Kelly will have to fill the cup 20 times.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the cube:
Rectangular cube, so the volume of the cube is the multiplication of its three dimensions(3.8 inches, 2.5 inches and 7.2 inches).
V = 3.8*2.5*7.2 = 68.4 cubic inches.
If the bucket holds 1,368 cubic inches of water, how many times will Kelly have to fill the cup in order to fill the bucket?
Solved by proportions, using a rule of three.
1 time - 68.4 cubic inches
x times - 1368 cubic inches
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]68.4x = 1368[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{1368}{68.4}[/tex]
[tex]x = 20[/tex]
Kelly will have to fill the cup 20 times.
