Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

A company is designing a juice box.

The box is in the shape of a rectangular prism.

The base of the box is 6 1/2inches by 2 1/2inches, and the box is 4 inches high.

The volume of rectangular prism=L×W×H

where L is the length=6.5 inch

W is the width=2.5 inch

and H is height=4 inch

volume=6.5×2.5×4

= 65 cubic inch

90% of the box’s volume= 90×65/100

= 58.5 cubic inch

Hence, volume of juice in the box=58.5 cubic inch
