Answer:

339604.65 cubic feet

Explanation:

We are given that 1 m is equal to 3.3 ft.

1 m = 3.3 ft

This means that if we find the volume of a cube of 1 m, we have its volume as:


1^3 = 1 m^3

In the same way, the volume of a cube of 3.3 ft (1 m) is:


3.3^3 = 35.937 ft^3

This means that:


1m^3 = 35.937 ft^3

The Kuroshio sea tank has volume of
9450 m^3. Its volume in cubic feet is therefore:


1m^3 = 35.937 ft^3\\\\9450 m^3 = 9450 * 35.937 = 339604.65 ft^3

The volume of the tank is 339604.65 cubic feet.
