Question

3ft by 4ft and 6in tallgind the volume

Answer 1

To find the volume of the box, start by converting the 6 inches into feet, using that 1 feet has 12 inches.

`6in\cdot(1ft)/(12in)=0.5ft`

use the formula of the volume of a box

`V=w\cdot h\cdot l`

w = 3ft

l = 4ft

h = 0.5ft

`\begin{gathered} V=(3ft)\cdot(4ft)\cdot(0.5ft) \\ V=6ft^3 \end{gathered}`

The box holds 6 cubic feet of sand.
