    Choice two

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Quincy must calculate the pool's volume in cubic feet, for each choice.

    The volume is the product of the length, width and depth.

    Volume = length x width x depth

    Choice One: 5 ft. * 5 ft. * 1 ft. = 25 cubic feet

    Choice Two: 4 ft. * 3 ft. * 1 ft. = 12 cubic feet

    Choice Three: 4 ft. * 2 ft. * 2 ft. = 16 cubic feet

    Which of these choices is best for the baby pool?

    The best choice for the baby pool is number two, because this one requires less than 15 cubic feet of water.

    Why are the others not good choices?

    Because choice one and choice three are more than 15 cubic feet water, and won't meet budget requirement.
