Question

Max packs cereal boxes into a larger box. The volume of each cereal box is 175 cubic inches. What is the approximate volume of the larger box?

Answer 1

2800

Explanation:

There are 4 rows and columns. Not three. Notice.

4 x 4 = 16.

Then multiply it by 175. = 2800

I got the same equation but my math teacher told me it was right.

Answer 2

the complete question in the attached figure

we know that

in the larger box there are----------> 2*3*4-----> 24 cereal boxes
then

if 1 cereal boxes is---------------> 175 in³
24 cereal boxes----------------> X
X=24*175-------> x=4200 in³

the answer is
the approximate volume of the larger box is 4200 in³
