A garden storage shed sells for $336. The storage space inside the shed is 8 ft long, 4 ft wide, and 6 ft high.

a. What is the volume of the storage space?
b. What is the cost per cubic foot of the storage space?

1 answer

a. The volume of the storage space is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the shed:
Volume = 8 ft x 4 ft x 6 ft = 192 cubic feet

b. To find the cost per cubic foot, divide the total cost of the shed by the volume of the storage space:
Cost per cubic foot = $336 / 192 cubic feet ≈ $1.75 per cubic foot

Therefore, the cost per cubic foot of the storage space in the shed is approximately $1.75.
