To determine if the fridge will fit in a space that's 35 cubic feet, we need to calculate the volume of the fridge.
The volume \( V \) of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula:
\[
V = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]
For your fridge, the dimensions are 2 ft (length) x 3 ft (width) x 6 ft (height):
\[
V = 2 \, \text{ft} \times 3 \, \text{ft} \times 6 \, \text{ft} = 36 \, \text{cubic feet}
\]
Now, we can compare the volume of the fridge to the available space:
- Volume of fridge: 36 cubic feet
- Available space: 35 cubic feet
Since 36 cubic feet is greater than 35 cubic feet, the fridge will **not** fit in the space.
