Answer:

20

Explanation:

Dimensions of each cube 5 in by 5 in by 6 in.

Volume of each cube is


5* 5* 6=150\ \text{inches}^3

Volume of the suitcase is 3080 cubic inches.

Number of cubes the suitcase can hold is


\frac{\text{Volume of suitcase}}{\text{Volume of each cube}}=(3080)/(150)\\ =20.53=20(8)/(15)\approx 20\ \text{cubes}

The number complete cubes that can fit inside the suitcase is 20.
