    4 in.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The volume of the box is (8 in) (2 in) (4 in) = 64 in^3.

    The formula for the volume of a cube is V = s^3, where s is the length of one side of the cube.

    Setting V = s^3 = 64 in^3, we get s = 4 in.

    The length of one side of the cube is 4 in.
