Tyler’s family is using a shipping trailer that is 5 feet tall, 4 feet wide, and 12 feet long to load boxes of apples in. Each box the apples are packed in has to have a volume of 5184 in3. Help design a box that will fill the trailer with no wasted space, and meet the volume requirements.

Analyze the information in the problem. Clearly explain your strategy for designing the box to fit the requirements.

Please and thanks :D

To get the volume 5184 inches cubed, I used the dimension 18in x 24in x 12in.
