The rest is pretty straightforward, just multiplying by the given numbers with no further unit conversions necessary. But you must get the volume in cubic meters first. It's a pretty large number, between 50,000 and 100,000 m^3 (assuming I calculated it correctly ...) Hope this helps a little. Create a video blog…instantly.
