Question

Brittany’s family is moving to a new home overseas. They will send their car two thousand miles across the ocean in a shipping container. Their shipping container was twenty feet long, eight feet wide, and eight feet tall. What is the volume of the shipping container?

Answer 1

Answer: 
`1280ft^(3)`

The volume of a rectangular prism is found by multiplying the length, width and height, so your equation would be:

length * width * height

= 20 ft * 8 ft * 8 ft

=
`1280ft^(3)`

Note: When dealing with volume the unit is cubed
