What is the volume of a room measuring 16' x 12' x 7'?

84 square feet
192 cubic feet
1344 cubic feet
16,128 square feet

The correct answer is: 1344 cubic feet

To determine the volume of a room, you need to multiply its length, width, and height. In this case, the room measures 16 feet in length, 12 feet in width, and 7 feet in height. The calculation for the volume is as follows: Volume = Length × Width × Height Volume = 16 ft × 12 ft × 7 ft Carrying out the multiplication step-by-step: First, calculate the area of the base: 16 ft × 12 ft = 192 square feet. Then, multiply the area of the base by the height to find the total volume: 192 square feet × 7 ft = 1344 cubic feet. Therefore, the room has a total volume of 1344 cubic feet, which matches the correct answer. The volume measurement is expressed in cubic feet to reflect the three-dimensional space, rather than in square feet, which measures area. The choice indicating 1344 cubic feet accurately represents the volume formula applied correctly.
