first, find the area of prism ll by multiplying 5/2, 9/4, and 2

this will result in 45/4, or 11.25

now, you have to figure out how many small cubes will fit inside prism ll

we know that the side lengths of the small cubes are 1/4, and since cubes have equal side lengths, you can multiply 1/4, 1/4, and 1/4 to find the area

this will result in 1/64

divide the area of prism ll, 11.25, by the area of the small cubes, 1/64, to get 720

then, do the same thing for prism l

multiply 7/4, 3/2, and 5/4 to get 105/32

divide this by the previous 1/64 to get 210

lastly, to determine how many more small cubes can fit into prism ll, subtract 210 from 720

720-210=510

final answer: 510 cubes

hope this helped!!
