Answer:

60 cubic feet

Explanation:

Total volume of boxes = Number of boxes × Volume of I box

= 5 × (Length × Width × Height)

= 5 × (2 feet × 2.5 feet × 2.4 feet)

= 60 cubic feet

∴Option A

Answer:

A.
60 ft^3

Explanation:

So to find the volume of a single box, we can determine that by multiplying the width by the height by the length. So:

2.5 × 2.4 × 2 = 12

Now because we have 5 of these boxes, and we know each box has a volume of 12, all we have to is multiply 12 by 5 to get 60.
