Question

Beth is making a beanbag seat in the shape of a cube. each side of the seat is 2 ft long Beth needs to find the volume of the seat so that she can buy the correct amount of beans beans are sold in bags that hold two cubic feet of beans how many bags of beans should Beth buy?

Answer 1

The first thing to do in this case is to find the volume of the cube, which will be given by:
V = L ^ 3
Where,
L: sides of the cube.
Substituting we have:
V = (2) ^ 3
V = 8 feet ^ 3
"beans are sold in bags that hold two cubic feet of beans"
Then, to find the number of bags, we make the following division:
n = (8) / (2)
n = 4
Answer:
Beth should buy 4 bags of beans.
