1. The problem you must solve is:

Jose has a fish tank that measures 11.8 inches wide, 19.7 inches long, and 15.7 inches deep. He empties it halfway to clean it. To refill it when he is done, he will fill a one-gallon jug in the sink and carry it to the tank, pour it in, and then return to the sink again.

1. Convert the dimensions of the tank to centimeters. Round all measurements to the nearest whole centimeter.

2. How many liters does Jose need to add to the tank to fill it? (Reminder: 1 liter = 1000 cubic centimeters)

3. How many times will Jose need to carry the jug from the sink to the tank?

To get full credit for this write-up, you should:

4. Answer all parts of the problem.

5. Show your justification for every step in your solution. Use clear, mathematically accurate language.

6. Label all numbers with the units they represent (e.g., 0.3048 ft/meter).

7. Clearly state your conclusions using complete English sentences (for example, "Jill needs to add 43 gallons of water to her pool").
