Question

The largest building in the world by volume is the Boeing 747 plant in Everett, Washington. It measures approximately 634 long, 710 yards wide, and 112 high.

What is its volume in cubic feet?

Answer 1

the dimensions you gave were yards?

Answer 2

To find the volume of a rectangular prism it is simply
Volume = Base x Height x Length

Answer 3

you would have to convert all the dimensions in feet then. there's 3 feet in a yard, so we can just multiply all the dimensions by 3

634 x 3 = 1902ft
710 x 3 = 2130
112 x 3 = 336

Answer 4

@AriPotta is very correct! I definitely missed that step!

Answer 5

then just multiply all that to get the volume

1902 x 2130 x 336 = 1361223360....ft^3

Answer 6

the 634 was in meters though do you still multiply it by 3?

Answer 7

oh, you didn't write that down :/

Answer 8

sheet.

Answer 9

im sorry it must have left it out I copied and pasted it

Answer 10

ok then...there's about 3.3ft in a meter...so that one would just be multiplied by 3.3
