Franco freezes the vegetables he grows in the summer so he can eat them all year long. He packs the vegetables into cube-shaped boxes that each have a volume of one cubic foot. Then, he places the boxes into a freezer that is shaped like a rectangular prism. The bottom of the freezer can be completely covered by a layer of 6 boxes. If the volume of the freezer is 18 cubic feet, what is its height?

Answer:

3 feet

Explanation:

If there are 6 boxes in each layer, there are 3 layers to have a total of 18 boxes, each of which is 1 cubic foot.

Three layers of boxes that are 1 ft high will be 3 ft high.

The height of the freezer space is 3 feet.
