Answer:

6 1/2 cubic feet

Explanation:

A carton has a length of 2 1/6 feet

The width is 1 1/5 feet

The height is 2 1/2 feet

Therefore the volume of the carton can be calculated as follows

= length × width × height

= 2 1/6 × 1 1/5 × 2 1/2

= 13/6 × 6/5 × 5/2

= 390/60

= 13/2

= 6 1/2 cubic feet

Hence the volume of the carton is 6 1/2 cubic feet
