Question

How many ice cube with a 2 cm side can be put in a box whose dimension is 4×4×4?

Answer 1

A cube with side length of 2cm has the following volume:

`2\cdot 2\cdot 2 = 8` cubic centimeters.

A box with side length of 4cm has the following volume:

`4\cdot 4\cdot 4 = 64` cubic centimeters.

So, you can fit

`(64)/(8) = 8`

ice cubes in the box.
