Note that 6 inches is half a foot, so if its 4ft. then 1/2 of a foot goes in 8 times which means that the scale factor is 8. :)

This will help I hope
Answer:
Volume of one cube shaped block is, 0.125 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cube(V) is given by:
.....[1]
where a is the edge length of the cube.
As per the statement:
Cube-shaped blocks are packed into a cube-shaped storage container. The edge of the storage container is 2 1/2 feet.
⇒
It is also given that:
The edge length of each block is 1/5 the edge length of the storage container
⇒
Substitute this in [1] we have;

Therefore, volume, in cubic feet, of one cube-shaped block is, 0.125
I think it’d be 2 but I’m not really sure
Solution:
we have been asked to find
Which length is greater 1/2 meter or 240 centimeters.
To compare the two given lengths, we will have to make both the length in same unit system.
Here 1/2 meter can be written as 50 centimeter , because 1 meter =100cm.
Now its very clear that 240 centimeters is more than 50 centimeters.
Hence we can say 240 centimeters is greater than 1/2 meter .
