At $1.40 per ft cubed , how much will it cost to fill an ice chest with dimensions of 4 1/3ft x 5 1/4ft x 4 3/5ft
To find the volume of the ice chest, we can multiply its dimensions:
Volume = (4 1/3 ft) * (5 1/4 ft) * (4 3/5 ft)
To simplify the calculations, we need to convert all the dimensions to improper fractions:
Volume = (13/3 ft) * (21/4 ft) * (23/5 ft)
Now, we can multiply the fractions to find the volume:
Volume = (5079/60) ft³ = 84.65 ft³
To find the cost of filling the ice chest, we multiply the volume by the cost per ft³:
Cost = 84.65 ft³ * $1.40/ft³ = $118.51
