Answer:

the answer is 24

Explanation:

You have to find the volume which l*w*h.

Your values for this formula are 8, 3, and 3. Now you plug in the numbers and solve.

8*3*3= 72 which is the full volume we just need one layer

72/3= 24 which is how many cubes it takes to fill up the bottom layer of the prism.
