Question

4) A box has dimensions of 14 inches long, 1.4 feet wide. and 9 inches high: What is the volume of the box? The formula for the volume is V=[-w-h.

Answer 1

The formula for determining the volume of a box is expressed as

Volume = lenght * width * height

From the information given,

length = 14 inches

height = 9 inches

width = 1.4 feet

We would convert 1.4 feet to inches. Recall,

1 foot = 12 inches

1.4 feet = 1.4 * 12 = 16.8 inches

Thus,

Volume = 14 * 16.8 * 9

Volume = 2116.8 inches^3
