Question

A box has sides of 10 cm, 8.2 cm, and 3.5 cm. What is its volume?

Answer 1

To get the volume of anything you multiply the height by the base. And the base is basically the area.

But because we weren't told which is which, we'll just multiply everything together. That will still work, too.

10 * 8.2 * 3.5 = 82 * 3.5 = 287.

The answer is 287 cm^3
