Answer:
The volume of the shipping box would be 36 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
One method to find the volume of the shipping box would be (l)(w)(h)
one we plug in our dimensions the equation would become 3 1/4 x 3 x 3 3/4
To simplify this we would first
Multiply
3 1/4 x 3 x 3 3/4 = 39/4 x 3 3/4
The bolded parts are the pieces we are working on
3 1/4 as an improper fraction is 13/4
13/4 x 3 = 13 x 3/4 = 39/4
- The second step would be to
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.
3 3/4 = ( 3 × 4 ) / 4 + 3/4 = 12 + 3 / 4 = 15/4
Now we have to Multiply
39/4 x 15/4 = 39 x 15 / 4 x 4 = 585/16
Lastly, we have to simplify
585/16 = 36 9/16
