Answer:


Volume = 6248.48 m^(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The area of the house
A = 2050\ ft^(2)

The height of the house
h=10\ ft

We need to find the volume of a typical house.

Solution:

We find the volume of the house by multiplying the area of the house and height of the house.


Volume = Area* height


Volume = A* h

Area and height of the house are known, so we substitute these value in above equation.


Volume = 2050* 10


Volume = 20500\ ft^(3)

Now we convert the unit from feet to meter.

Divide the volume by 3.2808 for
m^(3)


Volume = (20500)/(3.2808)


Volume = 6248.48\ m^(3)

Therefore, the volume of the house is
6248.48 m^(3)
