Question

A regular-size box of crackers measures 2 inches by 9 inches by 14 inches. The manufacturer also sells a snack-size box that has a volume that is 1/4 of the volume of the regular-size box. What is the volume of the snack-size box

Answer 1

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

2 x 9 x 14 = 252, 1/4 of 252 is 63

Answer 2

Answer:

63 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of regular box = width × length × height

                                      = 9 × 14 × 2

                                      = 252 in³

If the snack box is 1/4 of the volume of the regular-size box, to find the volume of the snack box, multiply the volume of the regular-size box by 1/4:

Volume of snack box = Volume of regular box × 1/4

                                    = 252 × 1/4

                                    = 252 ÷ 4

                                    = 63 in³
