In cubic feet, what is the volume of a toy box measuring 2 3/4 feet long, 3 1/2 feet wide, and 3 1/2 feet tall? (fraction)
The volume of the toy box can be calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height together.
Volume = length x width x height
First, convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions:
2 3/4 = 11/4
3 1/2 = 7/2
3 1/2 = 7/2
Now, multiply the dimensions together:
Volume = (11/4) x (7/2) x (7/2)
Volume = (77/8) x (7/2)
Volume = 539/16
Volume = 33.6875 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the toy box is 33 11/16 cubic feet.
