Answer

0.508 m30.508\ \text{m}^3

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Calculate the volume of the outer box.

    The outer dimensions are given as 2 m, 1.8 m, and 0.5 m.

    Vouter=Lengthouter×Widthouter×HeightouterV_{\text{outer}} = \text{Length}_{\text{outer}} \times \text{Width}_{\text{outer}} \times \text{Height}_{\text{outer}} Vouter=2 m×1.8 m×0.5 mV_{\text{outer}} = 2\ \text{m} \times 1.8\ \text{m} \times 0.5\ \text{m} Vouter=1.8 m3V_{\text{outer}} = 1.8\ \text{m}^3
  2. Calculate the volume of the inner box.

    The inner dimensions are given as 1.9 m, 1.7 m, and 0.4 m (ignoring the extraneous "1.4meter" from the input).

    Vinner=Lengthinner×Widthinner×HeightinnerV_{\text{inner}} = \text{Length}_{\text{inner}} \times \text{Width}_{\text{inner}} \times \text{Height}_{\text{inner}} Vinner=1.9 m×1.7 m×0.4 mV_{\text{inner}} = 1.9\ \text{m} \times 1.7\ \text{m} \times 0.4\ \text{m} Vinner=3.23 m2×0.4 mV_{\text{inner}} = 3.23\ \text{m}^2 \times 0.4\ \text{m} Vinner=1.292 m3V_{\text{inner}} = 1.292\ \text{m}^3
  3. Calculate the volume of wood used.

    The volume of wood used is the difference between the outer volume and the inner volume.

    Vwood=Vouter−VinnerV_{\text{wood}} = V_{\text{outer}} - V_{\text{inner}} Vwood=1.8 m3−1.292 m3V_{\text{wood}} = 1.8\ \text{m}^3 - 1.292\ \text{m}^3 Vwood=0.508 m3V_{\text{wood}} = 0.508\ \text{m}^3

    The volume of wood used in the box is 0.508 m30.508\ \text{m}^3.
