Answer:

Jeff's popcorn container will hold more popcorn

The bigger container will hold 130 cubic cm more popcorn than the smaller container

Jeff's popcorn container has the following measurement

20.5cm x 10cm x 10cm

George's container has the following measurement

30cm by 8cm by 8cm

Volume of each container can be calculated as = Length x width x height

Volume of Jeff's container = 20.5 x 10 x 10 = 2, 050 cubic cm

Volume of George's container = 30 x 8 x 8

Volume of George's container = 1, 920 cubic cm

Therefore, Jeff's popcorn container will hold more popcorn

The bigger container = 2,050 cubic cm

The smaller container = 1, 920

The amount of popcorn the bigger container can hold more = 2050 - 1920

= 130 cubic cm

Therefore, the bigger container can hold 130 cubic cm more popcorn than the smaller container.
