HELP PLEASE!!

You just bought an aquarium for your fish, which is 39.75 inches wide and 11.375 inches deep. The salesman told you to keep the water 2 inches from the top of the tank so the filter to works properly. If the tank is 14 inches high, how many cubic inches of water will it contain once it's filled?


A. 5,552 in. cubed
B. 5,426 in. cubed
C. 5,087 in. cubed
