Answer:

24 munchkins.

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let C be the number of chocolate and D be number of glazed donut holes in the original box.

We are told if Jacob ate 2 chocolate  munchkins, then 1/11 of the remaining Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

C-2=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)...(1)

We are also told if he instead added 4  glazed Munchkins to the original box, 1/7 of the Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

C=\frac{1}{7}*(C+D+4)...(2)

Upon substituting C's value from equation (2) in equation (1) we will get,

\frac{1}{7}*(C+D+4)-2=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)

Let us have a common denominator on right side of equation.

\frac{1}{7}*(C+D+4)-\frac{7*2}{7}=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)

\frac{C+D+4-14}{7}=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)

Multiplying both sides of our equation by 7, we will get,

7*\frac{C+D-10}{7}=7*\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)

C+D-10=\frac{7}{11}*(C+D-2)  

Multiplying both sides of our equation by 11, we will get,

11*(C+D-10)=11*\frac{7}{11}*(C+D-2)  

11*(C+D-10)=7*(C+D-2)

11C+11D-110=7C+7D-14

11C-7C+11D-7D=-14+110  

4C+4D=96

4(C+D)=96  

(C+D)=\frac{96}{4}

(C+D)=24

Therefore, the total number of Munchkins in original box is 24.

Andrew uses 630 one-inch unit cubes to completely fill the inside of a rectangular box. Which could be the dimensions of the box
dsp73

we have 630 one-inch unit cubes and we want to completely fill the rectangular box (unknown dimensions).

If all the cubes are fitted tightly inside rectangular box without living any space, then box volume would be equal to cubes volume.

There are 630 one-inch unit cubes, so volume of cubes = 630 cubic inches.

Now the volume of rectangular box would also be 630 cubic inches.

We know the formula for volume of rectangular box = length × width × height.

So we need to find any three positive integers whose product is 630.

Out of all given choices, only option A satisfies the condition of factors of 630.

Hence, option A i.e. (7 in x 9 in x 10 in) is the final answer.
