Question 1043223
.
A tank has the following description:

Length is 100% greater than width.

Width is 200% of depth.

Width is 2 yds.

Determine volume (in gallons).

Unsure how to proceed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


<pre>
1.  Since width is 2 yards,  depth is 1 yard   (<<<--- Width is 200% of depth, which means width is 2 times the depth)

2.  "Length is 100% greater than width." means Length is width + width = 2 + 2 = 4 yards.

3.  The volume is Length x Width x Depth = 4 * 2 * 1 = 8 cubic yards.

4.  1 cubic yard = 201.974 US gallons (<A HREF=http://www.asknumbers.com/cubic-yard-to-gallon.aspx>http://www.asknumbers.com/cubic-yard-to-gallon.aspx</A>)

    --->  Your volume = 8 * 201.974 gallons.

Please make the required calc.
