    We'll first need to find the area of one brick. We'll do this by doing length * width * height.

    14 * 8 * 5

    = 560

    So one brick is 560in³.

    Now, to find how many bricks there are, we'll divide the total area of concrete (16,800in³) by the area of one brick (560in³)

    16,800 : 560

    =

    30

    There are 30 bricks that the company made.

    14x8x5=560

    16800 divided by 560=30
