Answer:

60

Explanation:

Get the volume of the rectangular box

Volume of the rectangular box = length * width * height

Volume of the rectangular box = 20 * 6 * 4

Volume of the rectangular box = 480cm³

Get the volume of the cube;

Volume of the cube = l³

Volume of the cube = 2³

Volume of the cube = 8cm³

Amount of 2cm³ cube that will fit = volume of the box/volume of the cube

Amount of 2cm³ cube that will fit = 480/8

Amount of 2cm³ cube that will fit = 60

Hence 60 2cm³ cube will fit into the box
