What is the cubic feet of a microwave 13 deep by 14 wide by 9 inches high?

Either convert everything to feet first (e.g., 13 feet = 13/12 inch), and multiply; then you get the result directly in cubic feet. Or, multiply the inches first; the result will be in cubic inches; if you divide this by 12 cubed (1728), the result will again be in cubic feet.Either convert everything to feet first (e.g., 13 feet = 13/12 inch), and multiply; then you get the result directly in cubic feet.
