    297 cubic feet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1. Find total volume of the box: V=lwh

    l=11 ft, w=6 ft, h=6 ft (doesn't matter which is which in this case)

    V = (11 ft) (6 ft) (6 ft)

    V=396 cubic feet

    2. Find volume of 3/4 of the box

    Multiple the total volume by 3/4: what you are doing is diving the volume into four parts and only taking three of them since that is how much will be filled up with trash.

    3/4V=x, V=396 cubic feet

    3/4 (396) = 3 (396) / 4 = 1188/4 = 297 cubic feet
