A crate is shaped like a rectangular prism. The crate is 1.2 feet wide, 3 feet long , and 4.5 feet tall .What is the volume in cubic feet?
Accepted Solution
A:
The equation for volume is... [tex]length \times width \times height = volume[/tex] So, once you put in what you know, the equation looks like this... [tex]3 \times 1.2 \times 4.5 = volume[/tex] Simplify that to... [tex]3.6 \times 4.5 = volume[/tex] Which simplifies to... [tex]16.2 = volume[/tex] So, the volume is 16.2 cubic feet.
