Given your dimensions I assume you're object is rectangular.

Volume is given by length x width x height

Volume = 5.54 cm x 10.6 cm x 199cm = 11686.076 cm^3 (cm cubed)

Since there are 3 sig figs in all three dimensions given, and you are performing multiplication only, the answer should have 3 sig figs. You can either put it in scientific notation:

1.17 x 10^4 cm^3

or

11.7 litres

Answer:


1.16* 10^(4) cm^3 is the volume of an object.

Step-by-step explanation:

Object given with the with of following dimensions are is of cuboid.

Length of object = l = 5.54 cm

Breadth of object = b= 10.6 cm

Height of object = h =199 cm

Volume of the cuboid = l × b × h

Volume of the object:


5.54 cm* 10.6 cm* 199 cm=11,686.76 cm^3=1.16* 10^(4) cm^3
