Answer:
B. 273
Explanation:
First we have to find the volume of the pencil box.
The volume formula for a rectangular prism is lwh (Length x width x height). Length (6 1/2) x Width (3 1/2) x Height (1 1/2) = 34.125 (Volume of the pencil box)
Next, we have to find the volume of the cube.
The volume formula of a cube is the same as the volume formula for a rectangular prism (lwh). However, a cube's side lengths are all the same. This means that the volume of the cube would be Length (.5) x Width (.5) x Height (.5) = .125
Last, we have to divide the volume of the pencil box by the volume of the cube.
34.125 / .125 = 273 or B.
