Hard one.
One airline limits the size of carry on luggage to a volume of 40,000cm cubed a passenger has a carry on that has an area of 1,960 cm squared and its height is 23 cm. Is the passengers luggage ok to carry onto the airplane?

If they are really strict about it, then no since there's a 5,080cm cubed difference from what they require. However, depends on the luggage's length (if it can fit in the cabin) the airline may able to allow it since the difference is just small.

And this question was hard for you? The answer is NO, because:
Assuming this is not a joke, simply multiply the 1,960 cm*2 by the 23cm and you get 45,080 cm*3.
45,080cm*3 - 40,000cm*3 = 5,080 cm*3 more than the allowed volume.

to know the volume it occupies you have to do
1,960cm² x 23cm =45,080cm3
So you can see that it exceeds. Hence the passenger luggage is not ok to carry onto the airplane

No. Did you really think you could get a package that is more 5'5" x 5'5" on?
