a large storage container in the shape of a rectangular prism has the dimensions of the following: length 16.5m width 18.2m height 12m. how many 1 cubic m boxes can fit in the storage container?

3603 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular Prism is actually a cuboid.

Volume of cuboid = length * width * height.

It is given that length = 16.5 m, width = 18.2 m, and height = 12 m. Therefore:

Volume = 16.5 * 18.2 * 12 = 3603.6 cubic meters.

Volume is actually the capacity of the shape. If the box has the volume of 1 cubic meters, then the number of boxes that can fit in the rectangular prism will be:

Number of boxes to be fit = Volume of Large container/Volume of Small Container.

Number of boxes = 3603.6/1 = 3603 boxes.

Therefore, 3603 boxes will fit the rectangular prism and 0.6 cubic meters will be the spare space!
