Question

A box has dimensions of 20 inches long, 1.9 feet wide, and 8 inches high. What is the volume of the box? The formula for the volume is V = l · w · h.

Answer 1

V = 3648 in ^3

Explanation:

The first thing we have to notice is that the units are not the same.

Convert the feet to inches.

1 ft = 12 inches

1.9 ft * 12 inches/ 1 ft = 22.8

Now we can find the volume since all the units are the same.

V = l*w*h

V = 20 * 22.8 *8

=3648 in ^3
