Question

(01.03) A box has dimensions of 17 inches long, 1.3 feet wide, and 8 inches high. What is the volume of the box? The formula for the volume is V = l ⋅ w ⋅ h. (1 point)

2121.6 cubic inches (in3) 176.8 cubic inches (in3) 14.7 cubic inches (in3) 1.2 cubic inches (in3)

Answer 1

Convert 1.3 ft to inches which is 15.6in

then multiply all measurements using the volume formula which is L•W•H

17 * 15.6 * 8 = 2121.6 cubic inches

Answer 2

we know that

the volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

`V=L*W*H`

where

L is the length of the box

W is the width of the box

H is is the height of the box

in this problem we have

`L=17\ in`

`W=1.3\ ft`

`H=8\ in`

Convert
`1.3` feet to inches

we know that

`1` feet is equal to
`12` inches

so

`1.3*12=15.6\ inches`

`W=15.6 in`

Find the volume

`V=17*15.6*8`

`V=2,121.6\ in^(3)`

therefore

the answer is

`2,121.6\ in^(3)`
