Explanation & Answer
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!
First you must convert all the units to meters and centimeters.
1ft=30.48 centimeters
41.0ft x 30.48= 1249.68cm
28ft x 30.48= 853.44cm
8 x 30.48= 243.84cm
Volume of cube is L x Wx H
1249.68cm x 853.44cm x 243.84cm= 260,061,919.100928 cubic centimeters
or 260,061,920 cubic centimeters (by summing up).
Next convert all the units to meters
1 ft= .3048 m
41.0 x .3048= 12.4968m
28 x .3048= 8.5344m
8 x .3048= 2.4384m
12.4968m x 8.5344m x 2.4384m= 260.06191900928 cubic meters
or 260 cubic meters (by summing up).
