Answer 1

373248 cm³ of wax

Explanation:

If the crayon is 90 millimeters long, how many cubic centimeters of wax is used to make a box of 8 crayons?

1 crayon = 90mm

8 crayons = x

Cross Multiply

x = 8 × 90mm

x = 720mm

Converting to cubic mm

= (720mm)³ = 373248000mm³

Converting to cubic centimeter

1 mm³ = 0.001 cm³

373248000 mm³ = x

Cross Multiply

373248000 × 0.001 cm³

= 373248 cm³ of wax
