    48 in³

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The ratio of the linear measures is 2/3.

    The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the linear measures, so the ratio of the volumes is 2^3/3^3 = 8/27.

    The volume of the larger box is 162 in³.

    Let the volume of the smaller box be x.

    x/162 = 8/27

    27x = 8 * 162

    x = 48
