The world largest ice cream cake built in new york city on may 25th 2004 was approximately 19 ft by 9 ft by 2 ft rectangular prism. estimate the volume of the ice cream cake in gallons. if the density of the ice cream was 4.37 pounds per gallon estimate the weight of the cake. (hint: 1 gallon = 0.134 cubic feet)

Hello there!

Volume = Length * Width *Height

Let's plug in the numbers we were given

Volume = 19 * 9 * 2

This means that our volum is 342 feet^3

But, now we need to convert this to gallons. 

To do this, we must divide 342 by 0.134

342/134 

This would mean that our volume is 2,552.2 gallons

Now, we must find the weight of the cake using the density: 4.37 pounds per gallon.

Well, we know that we have 2,552.2 gallons

This means we must multiply 2,552.2 by 4.37

This would give us 11,153.1

This means tat the cake weighs 11,153.1 pounds

So:

Volume = 2,552.2 gallons

Weight = 11,153.1 pounds

I hope I helped!
