Lloyd bought a refrigerator that measures 76 cm×76 cm×170 cm to fit in a space with a volume of 975,000 cm3 . Will the refrigerator fit in the space? Explain.(1 point)

1 answer

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

The volume of the refrigerator is calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height:
Volume of refrigerator = 76 cm x 76 cm x 170 cm = 979,520 cm³

Since the volume of the refrigerator is 979,520 cm³, which is greater than the volume of the space (975,000 cm³), the refrigerator will not fit in the space. It is too big to fit within the specified volume.
