Explanation:

Length of house, l = 54 ft = 16.45 m

Breadth of house, b = 48 ft = 14.63 m

Height of house, h = 8 ft = 2.43 m

We need to find the volume of the interior of the house. The house is in the form of cuboid. The volume of cuboid is given by :

[tex]V=l\times b\times h[/tex]

[tex]V=16.45\ m\times 14.63\ m\times 2.43\ m[/tex]

[tex]V=584.81\ m^3[/tex]

Since, [tex]1\ m^3=1000000\ cm^3[/tex]

or the volume of the interior of the house, [tex]V=5.84\times 10^8\ cm^3[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.
