The number of sugar cubes in the box is 180

<h3>How to determine the number of sugar cubes?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Layers = 5
  • Pieces = 2 or 3
  • Cups of tea = 61 and 88

Multiply 61 and 88 by 2 and 3

61 * 2 = 122

61 * 3 = 183

88 * 2 = 176

88 * 3 = 264

The number of sugar cubes cannot be 122 and 264, because they are out of the range

So, we have:

183 and 176

There are 5 layers.

This means that the number of sugar cubes is divisible by 5.

The only number between 176 and 183 that is divisible by 5 is 180

Hence, the number of sugar cubes is 180
