There are two possible answers for this question.
\n" ); document.write( "If the aquarium has a glass lid, more glass will be needed
\n" ); document.write( "If the aquarium has no glass lid (like normal) less glass will be needed.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the two solutions find the area of each side. Because the sides are paired, you only have to calculate the area 3 times.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We start with the sides
\n" ); document.write( "200cm*600cm=120000cm squared*2 =240000cm squared
\n" ); document.write( "the small sides
\n" ); document.write( "200cm*300cm=60000cm*2= 120000cm squared
\n" ); document.write( "and the top and bottom
\n" ); document.write( "300cm*600cm= 180000cm....\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "with no glass lid the amount of glass needed is 540000cm squared\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "with a glass lid the amount of glass needed is 720000cm squared
\n" ); document.write( "
