Question 1112431: Standard cargo containers used aboard container ships and trains come in two common sizes, 40 ft. and 20 ft.; the larger container has twice the volume of the other. If 6 large containers and 5 small containers have a combined volume of 23,120 ft. ^3, what is the volume of a single 20-ft. container? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 6 large containers are equal in volume to 12 small containers
12+5=17
23120/17=1360 cubic feet each small 20 ft container
