A rectangular flour canister has dimensions of 512 inches by 4 inches by 10 inches. A smaller sugar canister has dimensions of 312 inches by 3 inches by 8 inches. How much smaller is the volume of the sugar canister than the flour canister? 84 cubic inches 136 cubic inches 220 cubic inches 304 cubic inches

Answer:

The correct option;

136 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the rectangular flour canister are;

Length = 5 1/2 inches (5.5 inches)

Width = 4 inches

Height = 10 inches

The dimensions of the smaller sugar canister

Length = 3 1/2 inches (3.5 inches)

Width = 3 inches

Height = 8 inches

The volume of a cube is given by the relation;

V = Length × Width × Height

Therefore, we have;

The volume of the rectangular flour canister  = 5 1/2 × 4 × 10 = 220 in³

The volume of the rectangular sugar canister  = 3 1/2 × 3 × 8 = 84 in³

The difference in volume between the two canisters = 220 in³ - 84 in³ = 136 in³

The difference in volume between the two canisters = 136 in³

Answer:

Yeah, what they said. Above.
