Question

Frances has 4 square baking dishes. Each pan is 7 inches × 7 inches × 2 inches. Which expression will give her the total volume of all the pans?

Answer 1

A. 7^2 × 2
B. 7 × 2^4
C. (7 × 2 × 2) × 4
D. (7^2 × 2) × 4

Answer 2

volume per dish is length x width x height = 7x7x2

total Volume = 4 dishes x volume/dish

so \[4 \times 7 \times 7 \times 2\]
which is equivalent to answer D.
