Need answer please !!!!!!!! A sports company is shipping softballs to its distribution centers. Each softball is in a square box with an edge length of 0.5 ft. If the shipping box is 2.5 ft by 2.5 ft by 2 ft, how many softballs will fit in each shipping box and what is the volume of the shipping box?

Answer:

You can put 25 softballs in!

My Work:

Find The Volume. V= Length x Base x Height

2.5 x 2.5 = 6.25

6.25 x 2 = 12.5

12.5 ÷ 0.5 = 25

Hope this helps! Plz tell me!

Have a great weekend and life! Thanks so much! Your welcome!
