A jewelry store revived a package of rings that is 16 inches long, 10 inches wide, and 12 inches high. That package contains 1 inch cubes that each hold one ring. How many rings did the jewelry store receive?

Volume of the package = 16 * 10 * 12 = 1920 cubic inches

Since the package contain 1 inch cubes

Volume of the cube = 1*1*1 = 1 cubic inches

Number of rings = Volume of Package/Volume of cube

= 1920 / 1

= 1920

The Jewelry store received 1920 rings.
