First, we need to convert the dimensions from inches to feet.
Height = 24 inches ÷ 12 inches/foot = 2 feet
Width = 36 inches ÷ 12 inches/foot = 3 feet
Length = 36 inches ÷ 12 inches/foot = 3 feet
Now we can find the volume:
Volume = Height x Width x Length
Volume = 2 feet x 3 feet x 3 feet
Volume = 18 cubic feet
Therefore, the answer is C. 18 ft3.
