The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height.
Volume = length x width x height
Plugging in the given measurements:
Volume = 9 9/10 ft x 6 9/10 ft x 6 1/10 ft
First, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
9 9/10 = 99/10
6 9/10 = 69/10
6 1/10 = 61/10
Now multiply:
Volume = (99/10) x (69/10) x (61/10)
Volume = 22791/1000 ft^3
Therefore, the volume of the moving truck is 22791/1000 ft^3 or approximately 22.791 ft^3.
