David has a gift that he needs to wrap. He is trying to decide if he has enough Avengers wrapping paper or if he will have to use the plain blue
ones he has. The gift is 18 inches by 2 feet by 9 inches, rectangular shape. If he has a piece of Avengers wrapping paper that is 3.5 feet by 3
feet, is it enough to cover the present?

Answer:

no, it isn't enough to cover the present

Explanation:

first, find the volume of the gift in feet

18*9=162 inches

162/12= 13.5 feet

13.5*2= 27 feet

then, the wrapping paper

3.5*3= 10.5 feet

compare them

27>10.5 meaning there isn't enough wrapping paper
