Question

Samantha bought a refrigerator that is 3 1/2 feet wide, 5 1/2 feet tall, and 2 1/2 feet deep. How much space will the new refrigerator occupy?

Answer 1

48.125 ft³

Explanation:

The space occupied by the new generator is the product of it's dimension:

The space occupied = Length * width * height

Space occupied = 3 1/2 * 5 1/2 * 2 1/2

Space occupied = 7/2 * 11/2 * 5/2

Space occupied = (7*11*5) / (2*2*2) = 385 / 8

Space occupied = 48.125 ft³
