In excavating for a new house, a contractor digs a hole in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The dimensions of the hole are 54 ft long by 36 ft wide by 9 ft deep. How many cubic yards of dirt were removed?

To determine

To find:

The number of cubic yards of dirt were removed.

Explanation

The volume of any solid is the region of space occupied by it and in general the volume of a solid is given by the product of its base area and altitude.

For a regular solid prism with base area B and altitude h, the volume is given by the formula

V=Bh.

Calculation:

Given,

The dimensions of the hole are 54 ft long by 36 ft wide by 9 ft deep.

Here, we have

l=54 ft,

w=36 ft, and

h=9 ft.

Now, the volume of the closed box is given by the formula

V=lwh

    =54 ft·36 ft·9 ft
