Answer 1

To find the volume of a closet, you can use the formula for volume, which is:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]

In this case, the dimensions of the closet are:
- Depth (length) = 2 feet
- Width = 5 feet
- Height = 7 feet

Now, plug in the values:

\[
\text{Volume} = 2 \, \text{ft} \times 5 \, \text{ft} \times 7 \, \text{ft}
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
\text{Volume} = 2 \times 5 \times 7 = 70 \, \text{ft}^3
\]

Therefore, the volume of the closet is **70.00 ft³**.
