Mrs. Burdell 's storage container is 3 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 8 feet tall. Can she fit 44 boxes that each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in her container ? Explain your answer.

Yes, she can fit 44 boxes if each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in her container

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mrs. Burdell 's storage container is 3 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 8 feet tall, then the volume of the strorage container is expressed as shown;

Volume = Length * Breadth * Height

Volume of the container = 3*2*8 = 48ft³

If she each boxes she is to fit into the storage container has a volume of 1ft³, the total number of boxes she can fit into the container is expressed as:

Number of container = volume of the storage container/volume of a container

= 48ft³/1ft³

= 48 boxes

Since she can fit 48 boxes successfully in her storage tank, then she can fit 44 boxes as well into the storage tank since the total number of boxes the tank can take is greater tan the proposed amount of boxes in question.

So, yes she fit 44 boxes if each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in her container
