What is the volume of an object whose dimensions are 5.54 cm, 10.6 cm, and 199 cm? Round your answer to the correct number of significant figures.
Given your dimensions I assume you're object is rectangular.
Volume is given by length x width x height
Volume = 5.54 cm x 10.6 cm x 199cm = 11686.076 cm^3 (cm cubed)
Since there are 3 sig figs in all three dimensions given, and you are performing multiplication only, the answer should have 3 sig figs. You can either put it in scientific notation:
1.17 x 10^4 cm^3
or
11.7 litres
Answer:
\(1.16\times 10^{4} cm^3\) is the volume of an object.
Explanation:
Object given with the with of following dimensions are is of cuboid.
Length of object = l = 5.54 cm
Breadth of object = b= 10.6 cm
Height of object = h =199 cm
Volume of the cuboid = l × b × h
Volume of the object:
\(5.54 cm\times 10.6 cm\times 199 cm=11,686.76 cm^3=1.16\times 10^{4} cm^3\)
