Answer: 1.47 sheets
Step-by-step explanation:
Duane's mum purchased a new pair of sneakers for him on his birthday.
Length of shoe box= 10 inches
Width of shoe box= 13 inches
Height of shoe box= 5 inches
Volume of the shoe box= length×width×height
= 10 × 13 × 5
= 650 inches
The wrapping paper measures 26 inches by 27 inches
= 26 × 17
= 442 inches
The sheets of wrapping paper that Duane's mum need to buy will be:
Volume of shoe box divided by measurements for wrapping paper.
= 650 / 442
= 1.47 sheets
