We know that his woodshed is a parallelepiped, and 8' is the depth, 16' is the lenght and 6' is the height.

A cord of wood is 4' high, 4' deep and 96" long.

96" = 8'

We find the volume of his woodshield.

V = h*d*l = 168*6 = 768 cubic feet

Find the volume of a cord

4*4*8 = 128 cubic feet

Do the ratio: 768/128 = 6

His woodshield can hold 6 cords.

For the second question, simply do a multiplication.

If 1 cord is $120, how much are 6?

120*6 = $720
