Answer:

51840 Cubic Inches

Explanation:

Volume of a prism = Width × Height × Length

Width = 3 feet

Height = 5 feet

Length = 2 feet

Volume of a prism = 3×5×2 = 30 Cubic Feet

We have to covert from Cubic Feet to Cubic inches

1 Cubic foot = 1728 Cubic inches

Therefore,

1 Cubic foot = 1728 Cubic inches

30 Cubic feet = ?

Cross multiply

= 30 × 1728

= 51840 Cubic inches

Therefore, the Volume of the prism in Cubic inches = 51840 Cubic inches.
