A dresser has a width of 6 feet, a height of 3 feet, and a depth of 2 feet. If the dresser has 6 drawers of the same size, what is the volume of
the space for each drawer?



Answer :

Answer:

6 cubic feet or 6 feet^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are three factors, we can assume that the shape of the dresser is a large rectangular prism, with the drawers being smaller rectangular prisms within that main rectangular prism.


Volume for a rectangular prism is: length x height x width

Width = 6 feet

Height = 3 feet

Length = 2 feet

V = 6 x 3 x 2

V = 18 x 2

V = 36 cubic feet

6 drawers so divide by 6

36/6 = 6

6 cubic feet of space per drawer
