Emma's Pet Shop sells aquariums in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Each aquarium measures 50 inches long, 20 inches wide, and 30 inches tall. The recommended density of each aquarium is no greater than 0.002 fish per cubic inch. Based on the recommendation, what is the greatest number of fish that should be in one aquarium?

60 fishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to apply the next formula:

Volume of a rectangular prism= length x width x height =50x20x30 = 30,000 in3

Now, we have the volume of the aquarium.

Next we have to multiply the volume by the number of fishes per cubic inch (0.002)

30,000 x 0.002 = 60 fishes

The greatest number of fish that should be in one aquarium is 60
