There are two ways to answer this question.
First, one of the defining characteristics of a hole is it's conspicuous *lack* of anything filling it. Ergo, there are zero cubic feet of earth in this hole. It's a trick question.
If, however, we are looking to find out how much the hole *could* hold, here is how we do it.
The formula for determining volume of a given space is length (l) x width (w) x height (h). Height and depth can be interchanged to suit the specific application.
Given the dimensions specified in the question, l = 4, w = 3, and h (or d) = 5.
4 x 3 = 12. 12 x 5 = 60. Therefore, the solution is that the hole has 60 cubic feet of volume.
60 cubic feet
Three acres three inches deep is 403.33 cubic yards.
It is: 2*20*10 = 400 cubic cm
36 cubic feet of dirt.
Generally with a ruler or a tape measure. Seriously, any three-dimensional volume which measures 36 inches on all three directions (width, length, height) is a cubic yard. Even if you don't have a perfect cube shape, you can still figure it out. Ex.-- a volume measuring 12 inches (one foot) deep (or high) times 3 feet wide times 9 feet long equals one cubic yard.
60 cubic feet
Three acres three inches deep is 403.33 cubic yards.
An area measuring 135 mm wide x 215 mm long x 580 mm deep has a volume of 0.0168345 cubic meters.
3 ft
4.5 x 9 x 1.5 = 60.75 cubic feet
It is: 2*20*10 = 400 cubic cm
An area measuring 14 x 8 x 2 feet contains: 8.296 cubic yards.
Volume = pi*1.62*21 = 168.8920211 or about 170 cubic meters of earth.
It works out as 33.817 cubic feet rounded to three decimal places
36 cubic feet of dirt.
Question is wrong. You need three (3) measurements, Length, width and height to get cubic feet.
Generally with a ruler or a tape measure. Seriously, any three-dimensional volume which measures 36 inches on all three directions (width, length, height) is a cubic yard. Even if you don't have a perfect cube shape, you can still figure it out. Ex.-- a volume measuring 12 inches (one foot) deep (or high) times 3 feet wide times 9 feet long equals one cubic yard.
