A manufacturer Phils various size boxes of flour. Today, the box and are 12 inches tall, 8 inches wide and 3 inches deep. They a
djust the filling machine so it only feels the box until the product is 1.5 inch from the top of the box. How many cubic inches of flour a while they save by not filling the box to the top?
Here is what I got:(maybe wrong) 12*8*3 = 288, which is how big the box is. Then, you remove 1.5 inches from the height and get 10.5*8*3, which is 252. Subtract 252 from 288 to get the answer, 36.
