Answer 2

160 plastic cubes

Explanation:

first find the volume the box can hold so,

4 x 2.5 x 2 = 20ft^3

from their find the volume of each plastic cube so,

.5 x .5 x .5 = .125ft^3

then you can divide the volume of the box by the volume of the plastic cube to see how many will fit

20 ÷ 0.125 = 160 plastic cubes
