Answer: First option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of bedroom = 20 ft

Width of bedroom = 10 ft

Height of bedroom = 10 ft

We need to find the volume of bedroom.

As we know the formula for "Volume of cuboid":

So, Volume of bedroom would be


20* 10* 10\\\\=2* 10* 10* 10\\\\=2* 10^3\ ft^3

Hence, First option is correct.
