Need Help Working Out Volume Of Box

[getfirefox]

OK, don't ask why I need to work this out, I just do :P

OK. I have a box (not in real life)
5 KiloMeters long,
2x10 to the power of -6 nanometers high,
3x10 to the power of -4 mm wide.

Could someone please find the volume of this box in meters cubed and explain to me how they got it?

Cheers.

Assuming the box is rectangular, isn't it just width x height x length?

Yes.

Just make sure the units are correct.

Welcome to PF.

This problem is about units conversion.
Convert all your units to meters, then use the obvious formula to calculate your answer..

EDIT: I got

3x10 to the power of -18 meters cubed.

Can anyone confirm this for me?
