    No.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First we need to find out what is the volume of the closet. To find the volume we will multiply the length by the width and the height:

    Volume = 3 feet x 3 feet x 7 feet = 63 cubic feet.

    Now, we have 67 boxes and each of them has a volume of 1 cubic foot, therefore the total volume for all 67 boxes is

    Volume = 1 cubic foot x 67 = 67 cubic feet.

    We observe that the volume of the boxes is greater than the total volume that the storage closet can hold, therefore we can say that it is not possible to fit all 67 boxes in the closet.

    No because to fine the volume u have to multiply all three sides so when multiply 3 and 3 u get 9 then u need to multiply it by 7 so 9 and 7 equals 63. so the volume of the storage closet is 63 that's less then 67 so no she cant fit 67 boxes in the closet.
