Alany is planning on using a truck to transport books to a book fair. The base of the truck bed has a length of 95in
and a width of 80in
. The height of the truck bed is 42inch
.
How much space does the truck bed have for transporting books?
volume = in3
To calculate the volume of the truck bed and determine the space available for transporting books, we use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:
Volume = length x width x height
Plugging in the values:
Volume = 95in x 80in x 42in
Volume = 319,200 cubic inches
Therefore, the truck bed has a total of 319,200 cubic inches of space available for transporting books.
