You are working with linear measurements and cubic measurements which are 3-dimensional.

You are working with a linear measurement and a cubic measurement which is 3-dimensional.

To form a direct proportion you have to cube the lengths.

$(m)^3/(ft )^3 = m^3/(ft^3)$

$(1)^3/((3.281)^3) = x/(3.375)" "(larr m^3)/(larr ft^3)$

Cross multiply

$3.281^3 xx x = 3.375$

$x = 3.375/3.281^3$

$x = 0.095555$

$x = 9.6 xx 10^-2 m^3" "$ (rounded to 2 decimal places)
