A dump truck can hold approximately 10 cubic yards of dirt. Approimately how many times will it need to be loaded to move the dirt that will be dug from a cube-shaped hole that is 30 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 30 feet deep?
A.1
B.27
C.100
D.2,700
Random Question 01455?
First solve for the total volume in yards: 30 ft by 30 ft by 30 ft is equivalent to 10 yd by 10 yd by 10 yd = 1000 cubic yds.
Since truck holds 10 cu yds per load, divide total volume: 1000 / 10 = 100 loads or 100 times the truck needs to be loaded.
Answer is letter C; 100
