first you need to convert all of the measurements into one units. Lets use ft as the universal unit in this case.
8ft = 8ft (Obviously!)
2in = 1/6ft
3yd = 9ft
8ft by (1/6)ft by 9ft = 12ft
Volume = 12ft

3 ft = 1 yd volume = 12 ft x 12 ft x 2 ft = 12 ÷ 3 yd x 12 ÷ 3 yd x 2 ÷ 3 yd = 10 2/3 cu yd ≈ 10.67 cu yd
The volume is 27yd3
3 ft = 1 yd → 8 ft = 8 ÷ 3 yd = 2 2/3 yd ≈ 2.67 yd
2 yd 2 ft
The volume of the box is 36 * 24 * 18 = 15552 cubic inches. ---------------------------------------------- 1 ft = 1/3 yd → volume = 1 yd × 2 ft × 1.5 ft = 1 yd × (2 × 1/3) yd × (1.5 × 1/3) yd = 1/3 cu yd = 0.333... cu yd ≈ 0.33 cu yd 1 yd = 0.9144 m (exactly)* → 1 cu yd = 1 yd × 1 yd × 1 yd = 0.9144 m × 0.9144 m × 0.9144 m = (0.9144)³ cu m → 1/3 cu yd = 1/3 × (0.9144)³ cu m = 497757069/1953125000 cu m = 0.25485.... cu m ≈ 0.25 cu m * derivation of 1 yd = 0.9144m (exactly): 1 in = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m (exactly) 1 yd = 36 in = 36 × 0.0254 m = 0.9144 m (exactly) If you are using an approximation for 1 inch in centimetres, then 1 yd ≈ 36 × approximation ÷ 100 metres. eg if 1 in ≈ 2.5 cm, then 1 yd ≈ 36 × 2.5 ÷ 100 m = 0.9 m and volume ≈ 1/3 × (9/10)³ cu m = 243/1000 cu m = 0.243 cu m
