Multiply the length times the width times the height (although it would be more appropriate to say depth in this context) times the number of cubic feet in a cubic meter. Since your measurements are all to the nearest 0.1, the conversion factor and your answer should also be rounded to the nearest 0.1.

Google says: 35.3146667 cubic feet per cubic meter. Use 35.3 as a multiplier.
