The Mill Creek sewer can hold a large amount of water. But every two to five years there is an especially large storm. The sewer is not large enough to hold the rainwater because a lot of rain falls in a short period of time. In fact, the amount of overflow-of water that does not fit in the sewer-is enough to fill Sulzberger Middle School to the height of 25'.

What volume of water can Sulzberger Middle School hold?

1. What is the length of the front of Sulzberger Middle School?_________

 

2. What is the length of the side of Sulzberger Middle School?____________

3. The formula for volume is the length of the front X the length of the side X the height of the water:
