Siobhan wants to have a beach party in January. Her parents said she can use the garage, which is 36 feet long and 20 feet wide. If she wants to cover the floor with 2 inches of sand, how much sand does she need?

Respuesta :

To determine how much sand she needs, we need the area of the garage

The area can be found by multiplying the width and the length

A = 36 x 20

A = 1080 feet

Now we multiply the area by the volume (2 inches of sand)

1080 * 2 = 2160

Siobhan needs 2160 feet of sand
