I have a field 60 m long and 110 m wide that is going to be paved. I ordered [tex]660,000,000 \text{ cm}^3[/tex] of cement. How thick must the cement be to cover the field?

First find the area of the field A=WL A=(110m)(60m) A=6,600m^2 Now turn the cm into m becouse 100cm^3=1m^3 660,000,000cm^3=6,600,000m^3 Now find out how many times you can cover the filled 6,600,000m^3/6,600m^2=100m So it will be 100m thick. P.S. I'm assuming you meant you jest forgot the m for 110m.

The thickness of the cement needed to cover the field can be calculated by first determining the area of the field and converting the cement volume from cm³ to m³. After calculating the thickness using the formula for volume, we find that the required thickness is 0.1 cm.
