Answer 1

To determine if the refrigerator will fit in the space, we need to calculate the volume of the refrigerator and compare it to the available space.

Volume of the refrigerator: The dimensions of the refrigerator are 76 cm x 76 cm x 170 cm.

Volume = length × width × height Volume = 76 cm × 76 cm × 170 cm Volume = 76 × 76 × 170 = 1,024,720 cm³

Volume of the space: The total space available is 975,000 cm³.

Comparison: 1,024,720 cm³ (refrigerator volume) - 975,000 cm³ (space volume) = 49,720 cm³

Since the refrigerator's volume (1,024,720 cm³) exceeds the available space (975,000 cm³), the refrigerator will not fit.

Correct response: No, it is 49,720 cm³ too big for the space.
