Answer:

  17 7/9 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is the product of the dimensions.

  V = LWH

  V = (3 1/3 yd)(2 2/3 yd)(2 yd) = (10/3)(8/3)(2) yd³ = 160/9 yd³ = 17 7/9 yd³

Additional comment

You can guess the correct answer with a couple of estimates.

  volume is greater than (3)(2)(2) = 12 . . . . rounding down to integer

  volume is less than (3 1/3)(3)(2) = 20 . . . . rounding 2 2/3 up to 3

Based on the way these numbers are rounded, the volume is closer to 20 than to 12. This strongly suggests that 17 7/9 is the correct answer.
