I would put all the measurements into inches, so you have 17*15.6*8

You have to multiply all three measurements, and then you get the volume in inches cubed.

I would say yes, this can be explained.

i Know it can be explained but explain the answer is what I'm having trouble with

Oh ok, sorry. The answer you get is 2121.6 inches cubed. This means that 2121.6 cubes with dimensions of 1 inch by 1 inch by 1 inch would fit in the box. Does that help at all?
