The volume of the assumed rectangular prism-shaped coffin, with dimensions 9 feet in length, 3 feet in width, and 3 feet in height, is calculated as 81 cubic feet by multiplying these dimensions together.

To calculate the volume of the coffin, which is assumed to be a rectangular prism with dimensions 3 feet by 3 feet by 9 feet:

Given dimensions:

Length = 9 feet

Width = 3 feet

Height = 3 feet

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is:


\[ \text{Volume} = \text{length} * \text{width} * \text{height} \]

Substitute the given values into the formula:


\[ \text{Volume} = 9 \text{ feet} * 3 \text{ feet} * 3 \text{ feet} \]

perform the multiplication:


\[ \text{Volume} = 27 \text{ cubic feet} * 9 \text{ feet} \]


\[ \text{Volume} = 81 \text{ cubic feet} \]

Therefore, the volume of the coffin, assuming it's a rectangular prism with dimensions 3 feet by 3 feet by 9 feet, is
\(81\) cubic feet.
