512.

If you have a cube that is 1x1x1 and a box that is 8x8x8, then you would multiply the 8x8x8 and get 512 because the cube is only 1x1x1 and when you multiply 8x1 you still get 8.

Answer:

512

Explanation:

To determine how many 1" x 1" x 1" cubes can fit into an 8" x 8" x 8" box, we need to calculate the volume of the box and then divide it by the volume of a single cube.

The volume of the box is calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height:

Volume of the box = 8" x 8" x 8" = 512 cubic inches.

The volume of a single cube is 1" x 1" x 1" = 1 cubic inch.

To find out how many cubes can fit, we divide the volume of the box by the volume of a single cube:

Number of cubes = Volume of the box / Volume of a single cube

Number of cubes = 512 cubic inches / 1 cubic inch

Number of cubes = 512

Therefore, 512 cubes that are 1" x 1" x 1" can fit into an 8" x 8" x 8" box.
