Answer 1

48.02 or 48 1/50 cubic feet and 3193.33 or 3193 33/100 LB

Explanation:

The width is 3.5

The length is 3.5*7/5 which is 4.9

The height is 4/5 of 3.5 which is 2.8

So, the volume in cubic feet is 3.5*4.9*2.8 which is 48.02 or 48 1/50

So, the amount in Lb is 66.5*48.02 which is 3193.33 or 3193 33/100
