Question

Imagine you are working for Hasbro making Gummy Bear containers. On a day to day basis you fill up two different size containers with gummy bears. One of the containers is4.4x5.7 x 6.0 in dimensions and contains 385 gummy bears. The other is 8.1 x 8.1 x 8.3 in dimensions. About how many gummy bears would fit in the box? Round to the nearestwhole number

Answer 1

It is given that,

One of the containers is 4.4 x 5.7 x 6.0 in dimensions and contains 385 gummy bears.

So, 1 gummy bear occupies,

`(4.4*5.7*6.0)/(385)=0.39086`

The other is 8.1 x 8.1 x 8.3 in dimensions.

So, the number of gummy bears would fit in the box is,

`(8.1*8.1*8.3)/(0.39086)=1393.24`

Hence, the number of gummy bears is 1,393 (Rounded to the nearest whole number).
