The closet is 36 cm wide, 15 cm deep and 87 cm tall. In the closet, there is a suitcase that is 20 cm wide, 13 cm long and 24 cm tall. How much room is left in the closet, in cm³
To calculate the room left in the closet, we need to find the volume of both the closet and the suitcase and then subtract the volume of the suitcase from the volume of the closet.
The volume of the closet is calculated by multiplying its width, depth, and height: 36 cm * 15 cm * 87 cm = 56,520 cm³.
The volume of the suitcase is calculated by multiplying its width, length, and height: 20 cm * 13 cm * 24 cm = 6,240 cm³.
To find the room left in the closet, we subtract the volume of the suitcase from the volume of the closet: 56,520 cm³ - 6,240 cm³ = 50,280 cm³.
Therefore, there is 50,280 cm³ of room left in the closet.
To find out how much room is left in the closet, we need to calculate the volume of the closet and the volume of the suitcase, and then subtract the volume of the suitcase from the volume of the closet.
The volume of the closet can be found by multiplying its width, depth, and height:
Volume of the closet = width × depth × height
= 36 cm × 15 cm × 87 cm
Next, we find the volume of the suitcase:
Volume of the suitcase = width × length × height
= 20 cm × 13 cm × 24 cm
Finally, we subtract the volume of the suitcase from the volume of the closet to find the remaining room:
Remaining room = Volume of the closet - Volume of the suitcase
Let's plug in the values and calculate:
Volume of the closet = 36 cm × 15 cm × 87 cm = 56520 cm³
Volume of the suitcase = 20 cm × 13 cm × 24 cm = 6240 cm³
Remaining room = 56520 cm³ - 6240 cm³
= 50280 cm³
Therefore, the remaining room in the closet is 50280 cm³.
To calculate the remaining room in the closet, we need to find the volume of both the closet and the suitcase and then subtract the volume of the suitcase from the volume of the closet.
The volume of the closet can be found by multiplying its width, depth, and height:
Volume of closet = width × depth × height
Volume of closet = 36 cm × 15 cm × 87 cm
The volume of the suitcase can be found similarly:
Volume of suitcase = width × length × height
Volume of suitcase = 20 cm × 13 cm × 24 cm
Now, let's calculate the remaining room in the closet:
Remaining room = Volume of closet - Volume of suitcase
Substituting the given values:
Remaining room = (36 cm × 15 cm × 87 cm) - (20 cm × 13 cm × 24 cm)
Now, we can calculate the answer.
