The volume is 70/9 or 7 7/9.
=========================================

(5)/(3) * (7)/(3) * (2)/(1) = (70)/(9)

(70)/(9) = 7 (7)/(9)

l * w * h = v

Answer:


V=7(7)/(9) cubic inches

Explanation:

Given: The length of the hamster bath is
2(1)/(3) inches, width is 2 inches and the depth is
1(2)/(3) inches.

To find: The maximum volume of water a hamster bath can hold.

Solution: It is given that The length of the hamster bath is
2(1)/(3) inches, width is 2 inches and the depth is
1(2)/(3) inches, then the volume is given as:


V=l{*}w{*}d

Substituting the given values, we have


V=2(1)/(3){*}2{*}1(2)/(3)


V=(7)/(3){*}2{*}(5)/(3)


V=(70)/(9)


V=7(7)/(9) cubic inches

Therefore, the maximum volume is
7(7)/(9) cubic inches.
