Question

What is the volume of the figure in cubic inches?

Answer 1

First, we need to convert the dimensions in feet to inches

`\begin{gathered} \text{ since } \\ 1\text{ ft}=12\text{ inches} \\ \\ \Rightarrow1.5\text{ ft}=1.5*12\text{ inches}=18\text{ inches} \\ \Rightarrow0.5\text{ ft}=0.5*12\text{ inches}=6\text{ inches} \end{gathered}`

Hence, the volume is;

`V=l* b* h`

`V=4*18*6=432\text{ inches cubic}`
