Math Question That Has Me Stumped?

Question

Determine the volume of an aquarium with these results.

L - 74 CM

W - 25 CM

H - 31 CM

Notes:

Volume:L X W X H

Use the ^ symbol to indicate exponents needed in the units

Number: ____________ Units: _____________

I didn't understand the last statement about the Unites and Exponents. What do I do here?

Answer 1

= 74 * 25 * 31

= 57,350

Answer: 57,350 cubic cm or 0.05735 cubic meter

Answer 2

number: 74X25X31

units: CM^3

Answer 3

The question is just asking for the volume so 74x25x31. I would not worry about that last sentence, sounds like you own a old and crummy math book to me.  

Answer 4

This is the volume of a box so you would have your answer in units cubed or to the 3rd power so online you can't but the little 3 above the answer so its (your answer) cm^3

Answer 5

When you are dealing with volumes, you are dealing with measurement in 3 dimensions so your unit of measurement would be cubed. i.e. raised to the third power. You already have the formula for volume so use it.

Multiply the measurements of L, W and H together and that will give you the Number part of your answer and then the Units would be, yeah, you guessed it - CM^3. Why? Because CM X CM X CM = CM^3
