How many cubic blocks of side length 1/6 inch qould it take to fill a rectangular prism with a length, width and height of 1/3 inch, 2/3 inch, 2/3, respectively

Respuesta :

Answer:

32 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

I would first determine the volume in inches of the rectangular prism.

V = 1/3 x 2/3 x 2/3 = 4/27 cubic inches.

Then I would calculate the volume of the cube with 1/6 inch sides

V = 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/216 cubic inches.

Then I would divide the V of the large prism by the V of the small cube

(4/27) / (1/216) = (4/27) * (216/1) = 32 cubes
