Answer 1

In order to do this, you need to be able to find volume.

Step 1: Write the dimesnsions down if stated. *it may help to draw a picture

Step 2: Write the formula for volume.
V=lwh

Step 3: If the dimensions are known sub them in for l,w,& h. *Make sure that all dimensions are the same units.
Ex- 6in. 19in. or 1.7 ft= 19in.

Step 4: Multiply the numbers together.
V=19(6)19
*the second 19 is what you get when you change the 1.7 into the same units as the others.

Step 5: Find the answer of 19(6)19. Which happens to be 2,166.

Step 6: *remember to write out what they are looking for which is volume.
V=2,166
