Volume problems require three dimensions, height, width, and depth, and the units must be uniform. If you are given width and length in feet and height in inches, you must convert one or the other so that you are using all feet or all inches. Simply take the product of the three numbers and append the unit cubed.

Example: The volume of a cylindar is the product of the area of the circle (area is two dimensions already) by its height. Suppose the radius is 3 inches and the height is 2 inches. The volume will be 32π(2) = 9π(2) = 18π = 56.55 in3.
