Answer:

2,300 boxes

Explanation:

Length = 1 foot

Width = 2 feet

Height = 4 feet

Volume of the boxes = length × width × height

= (1 × 2 × 4)

= 8 ft³

Length = 23 feet

Width = 20 feet

Height = 40 feet

Volume of a shipping container = length × width × height

= 23 × 20 × 40

= 18,400 ft³

Number of boxes that will fit into the container = volume of container / volume of boxes

= 18,400 ft³ / 8 ft³

= 2,300 boxes

Number of boxes that will fit into the container = 2,300 boxes
