Siobhan wants to have a beach party in january. her parents said she can use the garage, which is 36 feet long and 20 feet wide. if she wants to cover the floor with 2 inches of sand, how much sand does she need?

To determine how much sand she needs, we need the area of the garage

The area can be found by multiplying the width and the length

A = 36 x 20

A = 1080 feet

Now we multiply the area by the volume (2 inches of sand)

1080 * 2 = 2160

Siobhan needs 2160 feet of sand
