    Given:

    20 persons

    each person produces 740 BTUs

    Dimension of bus interior: 38 ft by 8.25 ft by 7.5 ft.

    Find how many BTUs per cubic foot are produced.

    BTU stands for British Thermal Unit. It is an energy unit.

    20 person * 740 BTU per person = 14,800 BTU

    Volume of the bus = 38 ft * 8.25ft * 7.5 ft = 2,351.25 cubic feet

    14,800 BTU / 2,351.25 cubic feet = 6.29 or 6.30 BTU per cubic foot
