A box with an open top is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard that is a square with side length 3 ft. To construct the box, cut out a square from each of the four corners and bend up the sides. Find the largest volume such a box can have. The units of volume are cubic feet. Enter the largest volume such a box can have (number only, without units).
