Answer:

Depth is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of an aquarium is 2.3 feet

Width of an aquarium is 1.2 feet

Volume of an an aquarium is 11.04 cubic feet

To find: depth of an aquarium is 2.3 feet

Solution:

If [tex]l,b,h[/tex] denote length, width and height of a cuboid then volume (V) of a cuboid is equal to [tex]lbh[/tex]

[tex]l=2.3[/tex] feet

[tex]b=1.2[/tex] feet

[tex]V=11.04[/tex] cubic feet

[tex]11.04=2.3(1.2)h\\h=\frac{11.04}{2.3(1.2)}\\h=\frac{11.04}{2.76}[/tex]

[tex]h=4[/tex] feet

Therefore,

depth is 4 feet.
