Question

I made a fort by two boxes. The first box is 4 meters long, 8 meters wide, and 8 meters high. The second box is 2 meters long, 7 meters wide, and 1 meter high. How many cubic meters of space does my fort have?​

Answer 1

242 m³ of space is there in the fort.

Explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of first box is 4 meters long, 8 meters wide, and 8 meters high.

The dimensions of the second box is 2 meters long, 7 meters wide, and 1 meter high.

Space left = Volume of first box - volume of second box

= (4)(8)(8) - 2(7)(1)

= 242 m³

So, 242 m³ of space is there in the fort.
