Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you do the subtraction 120-21.4 which is 98.7. So since you know its x^7, the number isn't going to be big. By guessing and checking, we start with 2. 2^7 is 128. We know that 1^7 would just be 1, so the closest whole number would be two.
a.) The height of the closet is 96 inches, and you want to have 4 rows, so you divide the total height 96 by 4
96 ÷ 4 = 24
So each cube organizer can be a height of 24 inches since it divides out evenly
b.) Each shoe box is 4 1/2 inches, because there are 3 boxes that are stacked on top of each other, you can multiply 4 1/2 by 3, or you can do 4 1/2 + 4 1/2 + 4 1/2.
4 1/2 + 4 1/2 + 4 1/2 = 12 3/2 = 13 1/2
The total height of the 3 boxes is 13 1/2
Just divide 35 ounces by the number of ounces in a pound, 16. The answer is 2.1875 pounds.
