Check the picture below.

[tex]\textit{volume of a rectangular prism}\\\\ V=Lwh~~ \begin{cases} L=length\\ w=width\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ L=24\\ w=15\\ h=1\frac{1}{3} \end{cases}\implies V=(24)(15)(1\frac{1}{3})\implies \stackrel{in~ft^3}{V}=(24)(15)(\frac{4}{3}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{converting all feet to inches}}{\stackrel{in~in^3}{V}=(24\cdot 12)(15\cdot 12)(\frac{4}{3}\cdot 12)}\implies V=(288)(180)(16)\implies V=\stackrel{in^3}{829440}[/tex]
