Question

question 9(multiple choice worth 1 points) (06.03 lc) the volume of a fish tank is 50 cubic feet. if the density is 0.2 \\(\frac{\text{fish}}{\text{feet}^3}\\), how many fish are in the tank? \\(\bigcirc\\) 5 \\(\bigcirc\\) 10 \\(\bigcirc\\) 125 \\(\bigcirc\\) 250

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density formula

Density formula is \( \text{Density} = \frac{\text{Number of fish}}{\text{Volume}} \), so we can rearrange it to \( \text{Number of fish} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume} \).

Step2: Substitute values

Given density is \( 0.2 \frac{\text{fish}}{\text{feet}^3} \) and volume is \( 50 \) cubic feet. Substitute into the formula: \( \text{Number of fish} = 0.2 \times 50 \).

Step3: Calculate the result

\( 0.2 \times 50 = 10 \).

Answer:

10 (corresponding to the option "10")
