Sean is stacking cans of beans of the market. His shelf is 10 inches tall, 10 inches deep, and 50 inches wide. The cans are 3 inches tall and each has a volume of 9.42 cubic inches. How many cans will fit on the shelf?

Basically you get the volume first:

10 times 10 times 50

Which is 5,000

And we're given the cans volume already:

9.42

So what we do now is divided the area by the cans for our

5,000/9.42

Which is 530.785563

So Sean can stack 530 cans of beans in his shelf.

(when rounding is is 531 cans)

any options?
