To find the volume of the box, start by converting the 6 inches into feet, using that 1 feet has 12 inches.
[tex]6in\cdot\frac{1ft}{12in}=0.5ft[/tex]use the formula of the volume of a box
[tex]V=w\cdot h\cdot l[/tex]w = 3ft
l = 4ft
h = 0.5ft
[tex]\begin{gathered} V=(3ft)\cdot(4ft)\cdot(0.5ft) \\ V=6ft^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]The box holds 6 cubic feet of sand.
