Given:
Aflakes box measure 10 inches by 8 inches by 6 inches.
The measurements of the soap are 3 inches by 1 inch by 2 inches.
To find:
We need to find the number of boxes of soap that can fit in the box.
Solution:
Volume of a cuboid is:
[tex]V=l\times b\times h[/tex]
Volume of the box is:
[tex]V_1=10\times 8\times 6[/tex]
[tex]V_1=480[/tex]
The volume of the soap is:
[tex]V_2=3\times 1\times 2[/tex]
[tex]V_2=6[/tex]
We need to divide the volume of box by t he volume of soap to get the number of soaps that fit in the box.
[tex]n=\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}[/tex]
[tex]n=\dfrac{480}{6}[/tex]
[tex]n=80[/tex]
Therefore, the 80 soaps can fit in the box.
