In cubic feet, what is the volume of a toy box measuring 3 3/4 feet long, 2 1/2 feet wide, and 2 1/2 feet tall? Use the volume formula to solve. The answer will be a mixed fraction in cubic feet.(1 point)
ft.3
The volume formula for a rectangular prism is:
Volume = length x width x height
Plugging in the given measurements:
Volume = 3 3/4 ft x 2 1/2 ft x 2 1/2 ft
Volume = (15/4) ft x (5/2) ft x (5/2) ft
Volume = 375/16 ft^3
Converting the improper fraction to a mixed fraction:
375 ÷ 16 = 23 with a remainder of 7
So, 375/16 = 23 7/16
Therefore, the volume of the toy box is 23 7/16 cubic feet.
