SUMMARY
The volume of a house measuring 62 ft in length, 29 ft in width, and 7.3 ft in height is calculated using the formula L x W x H. The initial calculation yielded 13,125.4 cubic feet. However, to convert this volume to cubic centimeters, the correct conversion factor must be applied: 1 cubic foot equals 28,316.8466 cubic centimeters. Therefore, the accurate volume in cubic centimeters is 400,062 cm³ when calculated correctly using the conversion factor at the beginning of the problem.
