Answer:
Option C, [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches³
Step-by-step explanation:
Stephanie puts 30 cubes in a box.
Cubes are 0.5 inch on each side.
The box holds two layers with 15 cubes in each layer
Since side of a cube is 0.5 inch so volume of one cube = (0.5)³
= 0.125 inch³
Volume of 30 cubes = 30 × 0.125 = 3.75 inch³
Since box contains 30 cubes
so volume of the box = volume of 30 cubes.
= 3.75 inch³ ≈ [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches³
Option C, [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches³ is the answer.
The volume of the box in question is
[tex]3 \frac{3}{4} {in}^{3} [/tex]
Number of cubes in the box = 30
Side length, a, of each cube = 0.5
Recall :
Volume of a cube = a³
- Hence, volume of each cube in the box = 0.5³ = 0.125 in³
- The volume of the box = volume of each cube × Number of cubes
- [tex]( \frac{1}{8} \times 30) = \frac{30}{8} = 3 \frac{3}{4} \: {in}^{3} [/tex]
Hence, the volume of the box is
[tex]3 \frac{3}{4} {in}^{3} [/tex]
