absurd dimensions!!!!
answer by the bot and given choices make no sense.
Shows the difference between a human and AI.
The human, me, can tell common sense data from blindly accepting given information.
The correct answer is: 118 ft.3.
Using the V=B×h formula where V is volume, B is area of the base (length times width), and h is height:
V = B × h
V = (112 ft. × 34 ft.) × 12 ft.
V = 4,032 ft. × 12 ft.
V = 48,384 ft.3
However, since we are asked for the volume in cubic feet and not cubic inches, we need to convert the answer to feet by dividing by 12 cubed:
V = 48,384 ft.3 ÷ 1728
V ≈ 28 ft.3
Therefore, the volume of the shoebox is approximately 118 ft.3.
