Answer: 1,626 cubic meters

Explanation:

V= lwh

V= length x with x height

Each number isn't specified (i dont know which numbers represent the width, length, and height since it isn't said) but that doesn't matter because according to the commutative property , you can multiply in any order and still get the same result.

So V= 15.8 x 24.5 x 4.2

V= 1,625.82

Rounded to the nearest cubic meter: 1,626 because 1625.82 becomes 1625.8, which, to the nearest whole number, is 1,626.
