    Answer:

    tank 1 can hold three times the water tank 2 can hold

    Step-by-step explanation:

    in this problem, we are expected to solve for the individual volumes of each tank

    given tank 1

    lenght= 30 inches

    width=20 inches

    height= 15 inches

    volume= 30*20*12

    volume= 7200 inch^3

    given tank 2

    lenght= 20 inches

    width=12 inches

    height= 10 inches

    volume= 20*12*10

    volume= 2400 inch^3

    to get the amount of water tank 1 one can hold more than two, we need to divivde the volume of tank 1 by tank 2

    = 7200/2400

    =3

    Therefore tank 1 can hold three times the water tank 2 can hold
