Which box holds more popcorn?

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Amanda's popcorn container holds more popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>First we'll have to find the volume.</u></em>

The Volume helps us determine which is bigger.

<em><u>Step 1</u></em>

We'll find Amanda's popcorn container

10cm*10cm*13.5cm=1350cm

<em><u>Step 2</u></em>

We'll find Mary's popcorn container

8cm*8cm*20cm=320cm

<em><u>Step 3</u></em>

Since Amanda's popcorn container has 1350cm (volume) and Mary's popcorn container has 320cm (volume) we'll have this. 1350cm>320cm. We can determine the Amanda's popcorn container has holds more,

<em><u>Final Answer</u></em>

Amanda's popcorn container holds more popcorn
