Question

A flight attendant has a hand cart in the shape of a rectangular prism that is filled with boxed snacks. The hand cart has a volume of 70/3ft cubed. Each snack box is in the shape of a cube with an edge length of 1/3 ft. How many snack boxes could fit in the hand cart?

Answer 1

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "630 snack boxes."

The volume of the container box is 70/3 ft^3.
The dimension of the small cube is 1/3 ft. So we need to get the volume of the small box.
Volume = (1/3)^3 = 1/27 ft^3

In order to get the number of snack boxes,
= (70/3) / (1/27)
= (70/3) * (27)
= 70 * 9
= 630 snack boxes.
