How many cubic inches are in a cubic foot given that there are 12 inches in a foot.

In[1]:= 9123, 1

Out[1]= 81728, 1<

In evaluating the fraction below, Mathematica will in effect invert the numerator of the fraction, In[2], and

multiply out the result. Notice that the dimensions, in3

, not the value of the dimensions, will divide out.

In[2]:=

400 in3

1728 in3

ft3

Out[2]=

25 ft3

108

In[3]:= %2 �� N

Out[3]= 0.231481 ft3
