Question

What is the volume of the box pictured below?

Answer 1

`(3)/(4)` m³

Explanation:

The volume (V) of the cuboid is calculated as

V = lbh ( l is length, b is breadth and h is height ) , then

V = 1
`(1)/(8)` ×
`(4)/(5)` ×
`(5)/(6)` ( change mixed number to improper fraction )

=
`(9)/(8)` ×
`(4)/(5)` ×
`(5)/(6)` ( cancel the 5's, 4 and 8 by 4 and 9 and 6 by 3 )

=
`(3)/(2)` ×
`(1)/(1)` ×
`(1)/(2)`

=
`(3)/(4)` m³
