Answer:
12 cubes can fit in the create.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the volume of a the crate is 768 in³, and the definition of the volume is:
Where:
So
Now, we know that the storage cube has a length of 4 in so we have a volume equal to 64 in³. Therefore we just need to divide 768 in³ by 64 in³ it is 12.
Finally, 12 cubes can fit in the create.

Because it is extremely hard to find the area of this figure all together, it would be in our best interest to split this figure up into three different pieces: the two horizontal rectangles, and the verticle rectangle. We can find the area of all three and add them up. Be aware that there are two different ways that you can break this figure up, As shown in the attachments. I will be using the first image (the one with the tall horizontal rectangles, NOT the almost-squares).
So, we see that we have enough information to solve for the area of the left-most rectangle. Area = lw. 10 x 4 = 40, so the area is 40. Next, we have to notice, that the horizontal rectangles are also the same, so both of the areas of the two horizontal rectangles are 40.
Now, we can find the middle rectangle. We know that the length of the entire thing is 18, but it is taken up by 8 (4+4) of the horizontal triangles, so 18-8=10, so the length Is 10. We also know that the height of the horizontal rectangles is 10, so 10-3=7. Our dimensions for the rectangle are 10x7 or 70 square units. If we add them all together, 40+40+70=150.
The area is 150 square units
