Question

You are making raised beds for a productive vegetable garden and have 4 boxes that are 1m x 2m x 1m deep. What volume of dirt (in cubic meters) will you need? How many cubic feet is that?

Answer 1

8 m³

282.3 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of each box is width times length times depth:

V = (1 m) (2 m) (1 m)

V = 2 m³

There are four boxes, so the total volume is:

4V = 8 m³

Converting to cubic feet:

8 m³ × (3.28 ft / m)³

= 282.3 ft³
