Question

Alex has 108 cubes, with dimensions in feet (ft), like the one shown.

He used all the cubes to fill up a box shapes like a larger rectangular prism. There are no gaps between the cubes.

What is the volume, in cubic feet, of the larger rectangular prism?

What is a possible set of dimensions, in feet, of the larger rectangular prism?

Answer 1

The volume of the larger rectangular prism is 4 ft ^3 (4ft cubed)

The possible set of dimensions are 9 cubes (3 ft) long by 3 cubes (1 ft) wide by 4 cubes (1 ft 4 in) tall.

Explanation:

(L)(W)(H) = Volume

(3)(1)(1 ft 4 in) = 4 ft^3 (cubed)
