If the width of the cardboard = x cm then its length is given by x + 8 cm.
Then the length of the box will be x + 8 - 2(2) =  x + 4
and the width = x - 2(2) = x - 4 cm The height is 2 cm 

Volume = h*w*l = 2(x - 4)(x + 4) = 256
2(x^2 - 16) = 256
x^2 - 16 = 128
x^2  = 144 
x = 12 cm 

Dimensions of the box are:-

length =  12 + 4 =  16cm
width = 12 - 4 = 8 cm
height = 2 cm

45000 x 4 = 180,000

180,000 * 5 = 900,000 ml in 5 days

1 liter = 1000 ml

900,000 / 1000 = 900 liters of water

What does the missing number represent?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: (C) the number of groups

Step-by-step explanation: It cannot be the total because the total is 18, the size of the groups does not make sense because it seems that you are trying to find a total, and the difference makes no sense because this does not seem like a subtraction problem. (C) the number of groups makes sense because their is a total number of groups.

Hope this helps! :)
