Answer:
934.2 in³
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Width (W) = 8.5 in
Length (L) = 11 in
Thickness (T) = 0.0037 in
Number of paper = 2700 sheets
Volume occupied by the 2700 sheets of paper =?
Next, we shall determine the volume of 1 sheet of paper. This can be obtained as follow:
Width (W) = 8.5 in
Length (L) = 11 in
Thickness (T) = 0.0037 in
Volume (V) =?
Volume = Length × Width × Thickness
Volume = 11 × 8.5 × 0.0037
Volume = 0.346 in³
Thus, the volume of 1 sheet of paper is 0.346 in³
Finally, we shall determine the volume occupied by the 2700 sheets of paper as follow:
Volume of 1 sheet of paper = 0.346 in³
Volume of 2700 sheets of paper =?
1 sheet of paper occupied 0.346 in³.
Therefore, 2700 sheets of paper will occupy = 0.346 × 2700 = 934.2 in³
Thus, the volume occupied by the 2700 sheets of paper is 934.2 in³.
