Question

A rectangular piece of metal measures 5.0 cm by 1.20 m by 15.0 mm. What is its volume in cm3? (make sure lengths are in SAME units first)

Give the final corrected answer in decimal (normal) form only.

Answer 1

15.0 mm = 15/10 = 1.5 cm
1.20 m = 1.2 x 100 = 120 cm

Volume = length x width x height = 120 x 1.5 x 5 = 900 cm3
