Answer:

150 ft^3

.1 ton or 200 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is given by

V = l*w*h

V  = 5*5*6

V = 150 ft^3

To find how much 1 ft^3 weighed take the weight and divide by the volume

15 tons / 150 ft^3

.1 ton / 1 ft^3

1 ft^3  weights .1 ton

We know that 1 ton = 2000 pounds

.1 ton = 200 pounds

Answer:

Volume = 150 ft³

Weight = 0.1 tons or 200 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume with the formula V = Bh

V = 30(5)

V = 150 ft³

Set up a proportion to find the weight of one cubic foot

[tex]\frac{15}{150}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{1}[/tex]

x = 0.1
