Answer:

No. 65 boxed will not fit inside the larger box

60 boxes will fit inside the larger box

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the larger box is


4ft*3ft*5ft=60ft^3

The volume of the smaller boxes is 65 cubic feet which is more that 60 cubic feet; therefore, 65 cubes won't fit inside the larger cube.
