1. Find the volume of the shipping box using the two methods and show your work plzzzzzzzz i neeeeeeeeeeeeeed help

Answer 1

The volume of the shipping box would be 36 9/16

Explanation:

One method to find the volume of the shipping box would be (l)(w)(h)

one we plug in our dimensions the equation would become 3 1/4 x 3 x 3 3/4

To simplify this we would first

Multiply

3 1/4 x 3 x 3 3/4 = 39/4 x 3 3/4

The bolded parts are the pieces we are working on

3 1/4 as an improper fraction is 13/4

13/4 x 3 = 13 x 3/4 = 39/4

- The second step would be to

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.

3 3/4 = ( 3 × 4 ) / 4 + 3/4 = 12 + 3 / 4 = 15/4

Now we have to Multiply

39/4 x 15/4 = 39 x 15 / 4 x 4 = 585/16

Lastly, we have to simplify

585/16 = 36 9/16

Answer 2

Explanation:

Measure the width, length and height of the shipping box in inches. Multiply the width, length and height of the box to calculate its volume in cubic inches. For example, if the box is 20 inches wide, 24 inches long and 16 inches high, then the volume is (20)(24)(16) = 7,680 cubic
