Question

A storage shed with a flat roof is 4 yards long by 3 yards wide by 2 1/2 yards tall. a cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet. how many cubic feet of storage space does the shed enclose.

Answer 1

For this case, the first thing we must do is calculate the volume.
 We have then:
 V = (l) * (w) * (h)
 Where,
 l: long
 w: width
 h: height
 Substituting values we have:
 V = (4) * (3) * (2.5)
 V = 30  yd ^ 3
 Applying the conversion we have:
 V = (30) * (27)
 V = 810 feet ^ 3
 Answer:
 the shed does enclose 810 cubic feet of storage space
