A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length of 13
feet, a width of 15 feet, and a height of 10 feet. The container is completely filled with contents that weigh, on average, 0.39 pound per cubic foot. What is the weight of the
contents in the container, to the nearest pound?

Respuesta :

Answer:

371 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find how much space is in the container

length is 13

width is 15

height is 10

2 * (15 * 13 + 10 * 13 + 10 * 15)= 950

The total space in the container is 950

Then multiply it by 0.39 to find the weight

950 * 0.39 = 370.5

Round to the nearest pound

.5 rounded is rounded to a whole number

371 pounds
