Answer:

5 1/4 cubes

Explanation:

Volume of the cubical box = length × width × height

= 6 in x 3 in × 7 in

= 126 in³

Volume of the cube = length × width × height

= 3 in x 4 in x 2 in

= 24 in³

how many cubes with the dimensions of 3 in x 4 in x 2 in can be fitted into the cubical box

= Volume of cubical box / Volume of the cube

= 126 in³ / 24 in³

= 5 1/4 cubes
