The weight of water is 62 1/2 lb per cubic foot. Water that weighs 150 lbs will fill how many cubic feet?

Question

I need to find how much water will fit into 150 lbs.

Answer 1

The question is worded incorrectly.  It should say the DENSITY of water is 62 1/2 lbs per cubic foot.  Divide the weight by the density to get volume.

 

(150 lbs) / (62.5 lbs/ft³) = ? ft³
