The depth of the ocean is sometimes measured in fathoms (1 fathom = 6 feet). Distance on the surface of the ocean is sometimes measured in nautical miles (1 nautical mile = 6076 feet). The water beneath a surface rectangle 1.20 nautical miles by 3.70 nautical miles has a depth of 18.0 fathoms. Find the volume of water (in cubic meters) beneath this rectangle. Number i Units
