Question

Michael is placing cubic blocks into a box that measures 8 inches by 12 inches. each block is 1 cubic inch. he has packed the first layer of the box with 96 blocks. the box is 10 inches high. how many blocks will Michael be able to pack into the box in all?

Answer 1

The correct answer is 960

Answer 2

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we can find the volume of the whole box:

8×12×10=960

then find the area of the blocks:

1×1×1=1

Finally, we divide them to find how many fit in to the box:

960÷1=960

So 960 of the blocks will fit into the box.
