A delivery truck company just bought a new delivery truck and they need to know the maximum volume it can carry. In the front of the truck, there is an extra ledge that sticks out over the driver's cab for extra storage space. What is the maximum amount of cargo that can fit into the new truck?

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the maximum amount of cargo the truck can carry, we need to find the volume of the truck.

Volume = length × width × height.

Firstly 1 feet (1') = 12 inches (12"),

For the extra ledge that sticks out, the height = 7'8" = 7.667 feet, the width = 16'9" - 14'3" = 16.75 - 14.25 = 2.5 feet, the length = 2'7" = 2.583 feet

Volume of extra ledge = length × width × height = 2.583 × 2.5 × 7.667 = 49.5 feet³

For the truck, the height = 7'8" = 7.667 feet, the length = 14'3" = 14.25 feet, the width = 6'6" = 6.5 feet

Volume of truck = length × width × height = 14.25 × 6.5 × 7.667 = 710.16 feet³

The maximum volume = volume of extra ledge + volume of truck = 49.5 + 710.16 = 759.66 feet³
