<h2><u><em>The lengths of the sides of a small cube are = foot. Volume of cube = side x side x side. V = = cubic foot. Number of small cubes that can be packed in the prism = = = = 180 cubes. Hence, 180 cubes can be packed into rectangular prism. Part B: Unit cube volume is 1x1x1 =1 cubic foot. So, 180 cubes will have 180 cubic foot volume.</em></u></h2>
All I did was I wrote out the equations, L = 2w - 5 and 2L + 2W = 26. I then substituted what L was into the equation and solves. Here's my work if you would like to see it.
