How many feet is 5 cubic feet?

Answer 1

A suitcase 2'6" long, 2' wide and 1' deep holds 5 cubic feet of clothes. If we restrict our discussion to objects that have rectangular cross-sections, then the volume (V) of the figures will be their length (L) times their width (W) times their height (H). V=LWH. If the object is a cube, then L = W = H = L3 and L = the cube root of the volume. In your case the cube root of 5 is about 1.7 ft. The trunk space will not be a perfect cube, but you could try arranging your luggage and estimating its combined length, width, and height.

In our Toyota, the usable trunk space is further restricted by the hinges on the lid of the trunk. Another thing we don't know is how the manufacturer defines usable trunk space.

Answer 2

Usually up to 200 cu/ft. You assume that you can stuck up to 8 feet, and then you multiply 5X5X8 = 200 cubic feet.

Answer 3

A square foot is a unit of area. A cubic foot is a unit of volume. The two units are therefore incompatible.

Answer 4

We need to have the height to figure it out.

Answer 5

You can't express cubic feet in feet since these units are not directly related to another. "feet" measures lengthwhile "cubic feet" measures volume.

Answer 6

Cubic feet are a measurement of volume, not of length. You might ask, however, what is the length of a cube, which has a volume of 5 cubic feet. It's slightly under 2 feet.
