Mia's fish are sick, and she wants to add medicine to the tank. The tank is a rectangular prism. The instructions suggest adding one drop of medicine for every 4 L of water. The base of the fish tank measures 30 cm by 15 cm. The tank if filled with water to a height of about 20 cm. How many drops of medicine should Min add to her tank? Explain how you found you answer. Reminder: 1 L = 1,000 cubic cm
Volume = 30 x 15 x 20 = 9,000 cubic cm. 9,000 cubic cm = 9 L 9 drops of water
