Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of the carton is 5 1/3 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A carton has a length of 2 2/3 feet, width of 1 1/3 feet, and a height of 1 1/2.

The dimensions can be rewritten as

Length of carton =2 2/3 = 8/3 converting to improper fraction).

width of 1 1/3 feet = 4/3 feet

and a height of 1 1/2= 3/2 ,feet

volume of the carton = length of the carton × width of the carton × height of the carton

Volume of carton = 8/3 ×4/3 × 3/2

= 96/18 cubic feet

Converting to mixed fractions, we have

96/18= 5 1/3 cubic feet
