Answer:
Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
Mass = Volume × density.
1 cubic centimetre = 0.001 liter= 1 millilitre
Given that,
Frank purchase a new ice box having 2 kg capacity.
So,the mass of the cubes is 2 kg.
Each ice cubes measured 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm.
The volume of a cube is =
The volume of a each ice cubes is = cm³
= 42.875 ml
The ice cubes have a density of 0.914 g/ml
The mass of each cubes are
=volume of each ice cubes × density
=42.875 ml ×0.914 g/ml
=39.18775 gram.
Let x number of ice cubes he can put in the box.
The mass of x cubes is = 39.18775x grams.
2 kg= 2,000 gram [ since 1 kg= 1000 gram]
According to the problem,
39.18775x=2,000
Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.
