Answer 2

Answer:

Storage locker A is 6 feet wide, 6 feet deep, and has a height of 9 feet.

Its volume can be found as = $6\times6\times9=324$ cubic feet.

Storage locker B has a volume of 306 cubic feet.

Locker A is bigger. Locker A has a volume of 324 cubic feet, which is 18 cubic feet more than the volume of Locker B.

Part B:

The monthly rent for Locker A is $0.35 per cubic foot. So, total rent becomes:

$324\times0.35=113.4$ dollars

The monthly rent for Locker B is $0.40 per cubic foot. So, total rent becomes:

$306\times0.40=122.4$ dollars

Therefore, it costs $113.40 to rent the largest locker each month.
