Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The driveway has the shape of a cuboid. The formula for determining the volume if a cuboid is expressed as
Volume = L × W × H
Where
H represents the thickness of the gravel to be added to the driveway.
W represents the width of the driveway.
L represents the length of the driveway.
From the information given,
L = 15 yards
W = 3 yards
H = 6 inches.
36 inches = 1 yard
6 inches = 6/36 = 0.167 yard
Therefore, the volume of gravel required would be
V = 15 × 3 × 0.167 = 7.515 cubic yards
