Lloyd bought a refrigerator that measures 100cm x 190cm x 85cm to fit in a space with a volume of 980,000 cm(to the 3rd power). Will the refrigerator fit in the space? Explain

1 answer

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

The volume of the refrigerator can be calculated by multiplying its dimensions:
Volume = 100cm x 190cm x 85cm
Volume = 1,615,000 cm^3

Since the volume of the refrigerator is 1,615,000 cm^3 and the space available is only 980,000 cm^3, the refrigerator will not fit in the space. It is too large to fit within the given space.
