The average density of Styrofoam is 1.00 kg/m^3. If a Styrofoam cooler is made with outside dimensions of 50.0 x 35.0 x 30.0 cm
and the uniform thickness of the Styrofoam is 3.00 cm (including the lid), what is the volume of the Styrofoam used in cubic inches? The answer should be 1100 cubic inches, but I do not know how to get there

Answer:
View graph
Step-by-step explanation:
The closest by default to 1100 cubic inches is taking two side and two front covers and that would give you 1080.12 cubic inches since two of the covers you must subtract 3 cm per side and side which would add 6 cm in total so outside would be 35 cm and indoor 29 cm . According the graph
29*50*3= 4350 * 2 lid = 8700 cm3
30*50*3= 4500*2 lid = 9000 cm3
So 8700+9000 = 17700 cm3 to inches 3 = 1080.12 cm3
