1. How many square feet of sand can fit into a sandbox that is 8 feet by 8 feet and 1 foot high?

Explanation

To find the amount of sand that can fit into the sandbox, you need to calculate the volume of the sandbox.

The formula for volume is:

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Given:

Length = 8 feet

Width = 8 feet

Height = 1 foot

Volume = 8 × 8 × 1 = 64 cubic feet

Since the sandbox's height is 1 foot, the total amount of sand that can fit into it is 64 cubic feet.

Thus, the sandbox can hold 64 cubic feet of sand.

2. To find the radius of a cylinder you should measure the diameter and divide by 2 ?

Explanation

To find the radius of a cylinder, you need to measure the diameter and then divide it by 2. This is because the diameter is the distance across the widest part of the circle, while the radius is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on its edge. By dividing the diameter by 2, you can determine the radius of the cylinder accurately. Therefore, the statement is true.

3. If you enlarge a rectangular prism with dimensions of 1 cm. by 2 cm. by 3 cm. by a scale factor of 3, what will its new dimensions be?

Explanation

When you enlarge a rectangular prism with dimensions of 1 cm by 2 cm by 3 cm by a scale factor of 3, each dimension is multiplied by the scale factor. Therefore, the new dimensions will be 1 cm x 3 = 3 cm, 2 cm x 3 = 6 cm, and 3 cm x 3 = 9 cm.

Submit
4. Which rectangular prism has a larger volume? Prism A: Dimensions are 5 by 4 by 2 Prism B: Dimensions are 6 by 3 by 2

Explanation

Prism A has a larger volume because the product of its dimensions (5 x 4 x 2) is 40, while the product of Prism B's dimensions (6 x 3 x 2) is 36. Therefore, Prism A has a greater volume than Prism B.

6. A rectangular prism has a volume of 120. Which dimensions can be the correct ones?

Explanation

What of this formulas could give you the volume?? (Think about this.)
Multiply the numbers and chck which one will give you 120.

7. I need to figure surface area for

Explanation

The correct answer is "wrapping a present" because when wrapping a present, you need to measure the surface area of the paper or wrapping material to ensure that it is large enough to cover the entire gift. This involves calculating the area of each side of the present and adding them together to determine the total surface area needed.

Submit
8. Which rectangular prism has a larger surface area? Prism A: Dimensions are 5 by 4 by 2 Prism B: Dimensions are 6 by 3 by 2

Explanation

Prism A has a larger surface area because the formula for surface area of a rectangular prism is 2lw + 2lh + 2wh. By plugging in the dimensions of Prism A (5, 4, and 2), we get a surface area of 64. For Prism B, with dimensions 6, 3, and 2, the surface area is 52. Therefore, Prism A has a larger surface area.

Submit
9. What is the volume of a rectangular prism that is 1 cm. by 2 cm. by 3 cm.?

Explanation

The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the prism. In this case, the length is 1 cm, the width is 2 cm, and the height is 3 cm. Multiplying these values together (1 cm x 2 cm x 3 cm) gives us a volume of 6 cubic centimeters.

11. A rectangular prism has a length of 10 cm, a width of 5 cm, and a height of 3 cm. What is its surface area?

Explanation

To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you add up the areas of all six faces. The prism has three pairs of identical faces: length × width, length × height, and width × height.

First, multiply length by width, length by height, and width by height. Then, add these three results together. Finally, multiply the sum by 2 because each pair has two faces.

For this prism, the total surface area is 190 square centimeters.

13. What is the volume of the cylinder below?

Explanation

The volume of a cylinder is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height. In this case, the volume is 2412.74.

Submit
14. A cube has a side length of 5 cm. What is the volume of the cube?

Explanation

The volume of a cube is calculated by cubing the side length (side * side * side). In this case, 5 cm * 5 cm * 5 cm = 125 cm³.

Submit
15. What is the surface area of the pyramid below?

Explanation

The correct answer is 225. The surface area of a pyramid is calculated by finding the sum of the areas of all its faces. In this case, since the question does not provide any measurements or dimensions for the pyramid, it is not possible to calculate the exact surface area. Therefore, the explanation for the given answer cannot be determined.

18. What is the volume of the pyramid below?

Explanation

The volume of a pyramid is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height and dividing the result by 3. Since the question does not provide the dimensions of the pyramid, it is not possible to calculate the volume. Therefore, an explanation for the given correct answer is not available.

Submit
19. A sphere has a diameter of 12 cm. What is its surface area?

Explanation

The surface area of a sphere is calculated using the formula:

Surface Area (SA) = 4πr²  

where r is the radius of the sphere.  

Since the diameter is 12 cm, the radius is 6 cm (diameter/2).

Therefore: SA = 4π * 6² SA = 4π * 36 SA = 144π cm²

21. A cylindrical water tank has a radius of 5 meters and a height of 10 meters. What is the volume of the tank?

Explanation

The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula:

Volume (V) = πr²h  

where:

r is the radius of the base  

h is the height of the cylinder  

In this case, the radius (r) is 5 meters and the height (h) is 10 meters.

Therefore: V = π * 5² * 10 V ≈ 3.14 * 25 * 10 V ≈ 785 cubic meters
