Answer:
44,800 golf balls
Explanation:
If 120 golf balls fit in a 1x 1.5 X0.5 (in feet) box, this means that 120 golf ball fits in a 0.75 ft box
To determine the amount of golf balls that will be needed to fill a storage room with dimensions 5 X 7 X 8, we will ahve to take the product of the dimension first
Dimension = 5*7*8 = 280ft
Since 120 golf balls = 0.75ft
x golf balls = 280ft
cross multiply
0.75 * x = 280*120
0.75x = 33600
divide both sides by 0.75
0.75x/0.75 = 33600/0.75
x = 44800
Hence 44,800 golf balls will be needed to fill the storage room with dimensions 5*7*8 ft
