Aquarium 6182

The aquarium, 60 cm long, 30 cm wide, and 40 cm high are filled with water up to 9/10 high. How many fish can there be if everyone needs at least 3 liters of water?

Correct answer:

n =  21

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} a=60/10=6\text{dm} \\ b=30/10=3\text{dm} \\ c=40/10=4\text{dm} \\ V=\frac{9}{10}\cdot a\cdot b\cdot c=\frac{9}{10}\cdot 6\cdot 3\cdot 4=\frac{324}{5}=64\frac{4}{5}=64.8\text{l} \\ {V}_1=3\text{l} \\ {n}_1=V/V_1=\frac{324}{5}/3=\frac{324}{5\cdot 3}=\frac{324}{15}=\frac{108}{5}=21\frac{3}{5}=21.6 \\ n=\lfloor n_1\rfloor =\lfloor 21.6\rfloor =21 \end{gathered}$$
