Question

Find the volume of the pet carrier shown at the right

Answer 1

Answer:

  Volume of the pet carrier   $=2702.5$ cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pet carrier in the image is in the shape of a cuboid

The volume of a cuboid can be found by the formula

         volume of cuboid= $Length*Breadth*Height$

Given:

Length = 20 inches,                          Breadth=$11\frac{3}{4} =\frac{(11*4)+3}{4}=\frac{47}{4}$ inches,                          

 

Height=$11\frac{1}{2}=\frac{23}{2}$ inches

Volume of the pet carrier:

                                          $=20*\frac{47}{4}* \frac{23}{2}\\\\= 5*47*\frac{23}{2} \\\\=5*47*11.5$

                                         $=2702.5$ cubic inches

Volume of the pet carrier   $=2702.5$ cubic inches
