Question

A brick has dimensions of 15 cm by 6.0 CM by 12 CM what is the volume of the brick in cubic meters

Answer 1

 The  volume   of  the brick  in cubic   meters  is 0.00108 m³

 calculation

volume of a brick  =length  x  width   x  height

-length = 15 cm

width = 6.0 cm

height = 12 cm

volume is therefore= 15 cm x 6.0 cm   x 12 cm =1080 cm³

convert  1080 cm³ into m³

that  is  1 cm³  =  1  x 10^-6m³

        1080  cm³ = ? m³

by cross multiplication

=[ (1080 cm³  x 1 x10^-6 m³)  /  1 cm³]  =  0.00108 m³
