Question

Suppose your bedroom is 21 ft long, 17 ft wide, and the distance from floor to ceiling is 7 ft, 6 in. You need to know the volume of the room in metric units for some scientific calculations. What is the room’s volume in cubic meters.
1. ______ m^3 (cubic meters)
2.______ L (Liters)

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 75.82 m^3 (cubic meters)

2. 75820 L (Liters)

Explanation:

Given data

L = 21 FT

W = 17 ft

h = 7 ft 6 in

Calculation

Formula to calculate volume is:

     V= L×W×h

put the values in formula

      V = 21 ft × 17 ft × 7 ft 6 in

       V = 2677.5 ft

Now we will convert Cubic ft to cubic meters, as we know that 1 cubic meter is equal to 35.3147 cubic feet

      V (m^3) = 2677.5  ÷ 35.3147

      V (m^3) = 75.82 m^3

Now we will calculate liters

as we know that 1 cubic meter is equal to 1000 liters

so multiply the ans. with 1000

    L = 75.82 × 1000

    L = 75820 l
