Question 1160033: sandy has a bucket in the shape of the prism below. He needs to go water his flowers, but he is curious how long it would take him to fill the bucket. If water runs into this bucket at 8 in3 per second, how long will it take him to fill the bucket? area of Bucket prism is 115 inches height is=18 inch Answer by ikleyn(52781) (Show Source):
You mistakenly refer to 115 inches as the area.
Area is measured in SQUARE inches, so your post shoud refer to the area of the basket as 115 SQUARE inches.
If so, then the solution to the problem is in one line
"how long" = = 258 seconds.
I calculated the volume (the numerator), and then divided it by the inflow rate.
