Answer:
[tex]Box\ A =30cm^3[/tex]
[tex]Box\ B = 24cm^3\\[/tex]
Box A can hold more
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Box A
[tex]Length = 2cm[/tex]
[tex]Width = 3cm[/tex]
[tex]Height = 5cm[/tex]
Box B
[tex]Length = 2cm[/tex]
[tex]Width = 2cm[/tex]
[tex]Height = 6cm[/tex]
Solving (a): The volumes of both box
Volume is:
[tex]Volume = Length * Width * Height[/tex]
[tex]Box\ A =2cm * 3cm * 5cm[/tex]
[tex]Box\ A =30cm^3[/tex]
[tex]Box\ B = 2cm * 2cm * 6cm[/tex]
[tex]Box\ B = 24cm^3\\[/tex]
Solving (b):
Box A can hold more because: [tex]30cm^3 > 24cm^3[/tex]
