Answer:

  5 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a square pyramid is given in terms of its side length (s) and height (h) as ...

  V = (1/3)s^2·h

For the given measurements, the volume is ...

  V = (1/3)(9 cm)^2 ·(10 cm) = 270 cm^3

___

The volume of each cube of wax is the product of its length, width, and height, so is ...

  V = (4 cm)^3 = 64 cm^3

___

Then the number of wax cubes required to fill the pyramid is ...

  (270 cm^3)/(64 cm^3/cube) = 4 7/32 cubes

Four cubes are not quite enough to make the candle.

Devin will need 5 cubes to make the candle.

nata0808 [166]

The given number -34\frac{3}{8} is not a whole number, It is a Integer and Rational number.

<h3>What are Whole Numbers?</h3>

The complete set of natural number with entity '0' is called whole number.

For example: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on.

<h3 /><h3>What are Integer ?</h3>

Integers are the real number but they can be positive, negative and zero.

For example: -2, -5, -8, 0, 1, 54, 66 etc.

<h3>What are Rational Numbers?</h3>

Rational numbers are those which have a numerator and denominator.

For example: 2/5 here, 2 is numerator and 5 is denominator.

Here, we have given the number as -34\frac{3}{8}

it can be solved using - ( 34 x 8 + 3 ) / 8

now, the number becomes

→ - ( 272 + 3 )/8

→ - 275/8

It is not a whole number, it is a integer and it is a rational number too.

Hence,

The given number -34\frac{3}{8} is not a whole number, It is a Integer and Rational number.
