Question 301646: A rock placed in an aquarium measuring feet long by 1 foot wide causes the water level to rise inch. What is the volume of the rock (in cubic inches)? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I assume length is 1 foot = 12 in
width is 1 foot = 12 inches
level increase is 1 inch
volume = 12*12*1= 144 cu. inches
The water displaced is the volume of the rock
volume of the rock = 144 cu. inches
