Answer:

63 in³

Explanation:

Volume of regular box = width × length × height

= 9 × 14 × 2

= 252 in³

If the snack box is 1/4 of the volume of the regular-size box, to find the volume of the snack box, multiply the volume of the regular-size box by 1/4:

Volume of snack box = Volume of regular box × 1/4

= 252 × 1/4

= 252 ÷ 4

= 63 in³
