A carton in the shape of a cube measuring 8 inches tall is filled with colored plastic cubes measuring 1 inch across each face. The cubes sell for 25¢ each. How much would it cost to buy all of the cubes in the carton

Answer 1

hiii!!!

here's ur answer...

given the side of the cubical carton = 8 inches

volume of the carton = side³

= 8 × 8 × 8

= 512 inch³

side of the plastic cube = 1 inch

volume of the cube = side³

= 1 × 1 × 1

= 1 inch³

no. of cubes can be filled in the carton = 512/1

= 512

512 cubes can be filled in the carton.

cost of one cube = ¢25

therefore total cost of all cubes = 25 × 512

= ¢12800
