Answer:
1. 360 cubic inches
2.(a)360 Cubic Inches, the owner is wrong
(b)6 in X 1 in X 1 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Dimension of the box
Length=9 inch
Width=1 inch
Height=1 inch
Volume=LWH
=9*1*1 =9 Cubic Inches
Volume of the stack( of 40 candles)
=40*9
=360 Cubic Inches
2. Dimensions of Ella' Box are:
Length=10 inch
Width=6 inch
Height=6 inch
Volume=LWH
=10*6*6
=360 Cubic Inches
(a)The owner is not correct. The Volume of Ella's box is equal to the volume of the stack.
(b)Since the Width of the box is 6 Inch, the owner could cut the boxes into dimensions of 6 inX1 inx1 in.
It means each level will contain
(6*10) candles.
There will be 6 layers which equals the exact volume of Ella's box.
