1,350 in.3
1,350 in. cubed
24,300 in.2
24,300 in. squared
5,832 in.3
5,832 in. cubed
437,400 in.3
1,350 in.3
To find the volume of one box, use the formula V = s^3 where s is the side length of the cube.
V = 18^3
V = 18 * 18 * 18
V = 5,832 in.3
Since there are 75 boxes, multiply the volume of one box by the number of boxes:
Total volume = 5,832 in.3 * 75
Total volume = 1,350 in.3
Therefore, the delivery truck service will need 1,350 in.3 of space to transport the 75 boxes.
