The formula to calculate the Trash Bag Size (TBS) is:
\[ TBS = \left(\frac{TCL}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{TCW}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{TCH}{12}\right) \times 7.481 \]
Where:
The trash bag size is the volume of the bag needed to fit a trash can. It is calculated based on the dimensions of the trash can (length, width, and height) and is expressed in gallons. This measurement ensures that the trash bag fits properly and can hold the expected amount of waste.
Consider an example where:
Using the formula to calculate the Trash Bag Size:
\[ TBS = \left(\frac{24}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{18}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{30}{12}\right) \times 7.481 = 56.11 \]
This means that the trash bag size for this example is 56.11 gallons.
