2---------------------- X
x=2*27=54 cubic feet

</span><span>b. 135 cubic feet to cubic yards
</span>1 cubic yard-------- > 27 cubic feet
x----------------------- 135
x=135/27=5 cubic yard

c. 6,912 cubic feet to cubic inches
1 cubic feet--------------- > 1728 cubic inches
6912 cubic feet------------- x
x=11943936 cubic inches

<span>d. 279,936 cubic inches to cubic feet
</span>1 cubic feet--------------- > 1728 cubic inches
x------------------------------ 279,936 cubic inches
x=162 cubic feet

2) <span>Solve the following addition problem. Remember to carry as necessary.

7 cu. yd. 9 cu. ft. 134 cu. in. + 1 cu. yd. 12 cu. ft. 200 cu. in.
</span>7 cu. yd
9 cu. ft-------- > 9/27=0.33333 cu yd
134 cu. in-----> 134*2.1433e-5=0.00287
1 cu. yd
12 cu. ft------- 12/27=0.44444 cu yd
200 cu. in----200*2.1433e-5=0.00429 cu yd

(7+0.33333+0.00287)+(1+0.44444+0.00429)=8.78493 cu yd

3 <span>Solve the following subtraction problem. Remember to borrow as necessary.

9 cu. yd. 113 cu. in. – 4 cu. ft. 129 cu. in.
</span>9 cu yd
113 cu in---------113*2.1433e-5=0.00242 cu yd
4 cu. ft--------4/27=0.14814 cu yd
129 cu. in----------129*2.1433e-5=.00276
(9+0.00242)-(0.14814+.00276)=8.85152 cu yd

4 <span>Solve the following multiplication problem.

11 cu. yd. 17 cu. in. × 135
</span>11 cu yd
17 cu in----------17*2.1433e-5=0.00036 cu yd

(11+0.00036)*135=1485.0486 cu yd

5 <span>What’s the capacity of a 3 cubic foot carton in cubic inches?
