So what is the formual for volume?

Answer 13

the formula is V=whl

Answer 14

in this case V=4*3*11=132

Answer 16

Ok, so we are reducing it by a scale factor if 1/10.

So that means the new volume will be:

\(\sf\Large\frac{4}{10}\times\frac{3}{10}\times\frac{11}{10}\)

Answer 17

oh ok
that would equal 0.132

Answer 18

And basically that means that your answer is:

\(\sf\large\frac{132}{10^3}\)

It's 10^3 because we are dealing with volume. If the area was reduced by 1/10 then it would be 10^2 in the denominator.
