Problem

The width of a recycling bin is $\frac{3}{4}$ foot, the length is 1 foot, and the height is $1 \frac{1}{2}$ feet. What is the volume of the recycling bin?

Solution

Step 1 :Convert the mixed number height to an improper fraction: \(1 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}\)

Step 2 :Calculate the volume by multiplying width, length, and height: \(\frac{3}{4} \times 1 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{9}{8}\)

Step 3 :\(\boxed{\text{Final Answer: The volume of the recycling bin is } \frac{9}{8} \text{ cubic feet}}\)
