Answer:

[tex]453\ m^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The cubic meters of space does the gorilla have to play in her fort is equal to adds the volume of the first box and the volume of the second box

The volume of the box is equal to

[tex]V=LWH[/tex]

so

Find the volume of the first box

[tex]V1=5*9*9=405\ m^{3}[/tex]

Find the volume of the second box

[tex]V2=3*8*2=48\ m^{3}[/tex]

Adds V1 and V2

[tex]405\ m^{3}+48\ m^{3}=453\ m^{3}[/tex]
