What is 10x15x8 ft converted into cubic ft?

Question

My husband and I are moving and we have a storage unit that is 10x15x8 and most moving trucks give area in cubic ft and I need to know what size to reserve any help would be appreciated with the price of gas I don't want to make two trips unless necessary

Answer 1

For Ur information ::

Feet is a Linear dimension, Cubic feet denotes Volume

If  each of the three given numbers (10X15X8) are in feet, Total Volume (or capacity) of Ur Storage-Unit will be :

:: 10ft X15ft X8ft

= 10X15X8X(ftXftXft)

= 1200 cubic ft. … … … (A)

Now, measure the LENGTH, BREADTH and HEIGHT of the ‘Truck-Body’ in Feet.

Multiply these 3 dimensions ::

U will get the VOLUME of the Truck in Cubic Feet. … … (B)

Divide (A) by (B). This will give U the numbers of TRIPS (by that truck) required to fill up Ur Storage Unit.

NB :: If the result is, … say, 1.4., it will mean that 1(one) full truck, and another 0.4 parts of the truck-capacity, ie., 0.4X(B).

In this case, U must be satisfied with ONLY 1 (one) trip.

If U bring 2 (two) trips, there will be wastage.

However, if U pay for that [0.4X(B)]cubic feet only, U can fill-up your 'storage-unit' completely.

Though, the truck will claim ‘full-fare’.

Could I help you Friends ?

U may ask me more on this matter, if necessary. I shall reply.

Answer 2

1,200 cubic feet.

Just multiply. 15×8 = 120×10 = 1,200.

Answer 3

10ft x 15ft x 8ft = 1200 cubic feet. Volume capacity. (Not Area).

The area of the truck floor is most likely 8' x 15' = 120 square feet. (height will be 10').

Answer 4

Multiply the three numbers together - that is cubic feet

Answer 5

Did you not take 4th grade math?!

10 x 15 x 8 = 1200
