alaine has 1 gallon of paint. she is going to pour it into a paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 5 cm deep.

(1 gallon = 231 in3, 1 inch = 2.54 cm)

which of the following scenarios will happen? (2 points)

the paint will not fill the tray by 369 cm3.

the paint will not fill the tray by 5.22 in3.

the paint will fill the tray exactly.

the paint will overfill the tray by 5.22 in3.

The dimensions of the paint tray are:
W = 10 in
L = 12 in
D = 5 cm (1in / 2.54 cm) = 1.97 in

The total volume of the paint tray is:
Vt = WLD
Vt = (10)(12)(1.97) = 236.22 in3

Converting the volume of the paint to in3
Vp = 1 gal (231 in3 / 1gal) = 231 in3

Getting the difference,
236.22 in3 - 231in3 = 5.22 in3

Since the volume of tray is greater than the volume of the paint, the answer is:
The paint will not fill the tray by 5.22 in3.

The answer is 4 points
