A:
The amount of water that will fill the tank is the volume. To find the volume multiply the length by the width by the height.

20.25 x 10.5 x 12.5= 2657.8125
The volume is 2657.8125 in.³.

The amount of wrapping paper would be represented by the surface area.

20.25 x 10.5 = 212.625
12.5 x 10.5=131.25
20.25 x 12.5 =253.125
At least together to get 597 in.². Then multiply this by two because there are 6 faces.

597 ft.² x 2= 1194 ft.².

2a. To find the new dimensions multiply each dimension by 8.

The new dimensions would be 162 inches, 100 inches, and 84 inches.

b. The volume would be 8×8×8 = 512 times greater. Multiplied by eight for each dimension.

C. The service area would be 8×8 = 64 times greater. Multiply by eight for each of the two dimensions represented in the area.
