Question

Mrs. Chang's class built a platform for use in a school play. What is the
volume of the platform?

PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

Answer:

Total Platform = 128 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Left Volume: 2 ft * 4 ft * 3 ft = 24 ft^3

Mid Volume: 4 ft * 4 ft * 5 ft = 80 ft^3

Right Volume: 2 ft * 4 ft * 3 ft = 24 ft^3

Total Volume = 24 ft^3 + 80 ft^3 + 24 ft^3 = 128 ft^3

Answer 2

Answer:

v = $108^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd start with breaking the platform into two parts, the long flat rectangle and then the bit on top. You'll have to add these together at the end!

_________________

So part one: the long piece

formula: v = lwh

dimensions: 12, 3, 2

plug in: v = 12 * 3 * 2

solve: v = 72^3

_________________

part two: smaller rectangle on top ::

formula: v = lwh

dimensions: 4, 3, 3

plug in: v = 4 * 3 * 3

solve:v = 36*3

now, we add for the total of the entire shape!

final answer: 72 + 36 = 108^3
