Problem 1 Counting 38 cu. ft. of coal to a ton, how many tons will a coal bin 19 ft. long, 6 ft. wide, and 9 ft. deep contain, when level full?
Solution 1
$V = 1026 \, \text{ ft}^3$
Weight 1026 ft3 coal $W = \dfrac{1 \, \text{ ton}}{38 \, \text{ ft}^3}(1026 \, \text{ ft}^3)$
$W = 27 \, \text{ tons}$ answer
