Problem How many cubes with side lengths of 1/3 does it take to fill the prism?
the length of the box is
1cm
height
2/3 cm
width
2 2/3
I'm assuming that side length of (1/3) = (1/3)cm
The volume of one cube = (1/3)^3 = 1/27 cm^3
Volume of the prism (box) =
Length * Height * Width =
( 1) ( 2/3) (2 2/3) =
(1) (2/3) (8/3) =
16/9 cm^3
So....the number of cubes that will fit = Volume of Prism / Volume of one cube =
(16/9) / (1/27) =
(16/9) * (27/1) =
16 * ( 27/9) =
16 * 3 =
48 cubes
