🔍 Key Concepts

• Stowage factor as cubic feet per ton of cargo • How to use bale cubic capacity to find total weight of cargo that can be carried • Basic formula: cargo weight (tons) = cargo space (cubic feet) ÷ stowage factor (cubic feet per ton)

💭 Think About

• What does a stowage factor of 96 actually mean in terms of space required for each ton of wool? • How can you combine the compartment’s bale cubic and the stowage factor in one calculation to find tons of cargo? • After you calculate tons, which answer choice is closest to your calculated value, and does it make sense physically?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are using bale cubic (84,000), not grain cubic or any other volume • Confirm your units: both bale cubic and stowage factor should be in cubic feet so they cancel correctly • After dividing, check that your answer is in tons and falls within a reasonable range for the space available
