Answer: 960^3 cm or 960 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Cubic because measuring 3 dimensions.

32x45 = area of given face

32x45= 1440

height of water = 10 cm

so,

area of given face x 10 =

32x45x10 or lxwxh (Volume)

so

1440x10= 14,400

1440x8= 11,520

so 14,400 - 11,520 = 2880

V of three plants = 2880

so, 2880/3 = volume of one plant

2880/3=960

V of singe plant = 960 units ^ 3

The difference in volumes represents the total volume of three plants, so answer should be divided by 3.

Hope This Helped!

Answer:  one plastic water plant volume =  960 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Total volume = Water Volume + 3 plants volume

Total Volume = 32 cm x 45 cm x 10 cm = 14 400 cm³

Water volume = 32 cm x 45 cm x 8 cm = 11 520 cm³

3 Plants volume = 14,400 cm³ - 11,520 cm³ = 2880 cm³

1 Plant volume = 2,880 cm³ : 3 = 960 cm³
