Answer:

8 inches

Explanation:

A shipping company has 3 different sized cubed boxes.

The volume of the boxes are 216in³,512in³,and 1000in³

We find the height of each volume of box.

a) 216in³,

Volume = h³

Height = cube root (216)

= 6 in

b) 512in³

= Volume = h³

Height = cube root (512)

= 8 in

c) 1000in³

Volume = h³

Height = cube root (1000)

= 10 in

Since: Mia needs to ship a gift with a height of 7 in .

Therefore: the height in inches of the smallest box that Mia can use is 8 inches (8 in)
