A truck is being filled with cube-shaped packages that have side lengths of 1/4 foot. The part of the truck that is being filled is in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimensions of 8 ft x 6 1/4 ft x 7 1/2 ft. What is the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck?

24000 pieces.      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Side lengths of cube =

The part of the truck that is being filled is in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimensions of 8 ft x 6 1/4 ft x 7 1/2 ft.

Question asked:

What is the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck?

Solution:

First of all we will find volume of cube, then volume of rectangular prism and then simply divide the volume of prism by volume of cube to find the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck.

Length = 8 foot, Breadth = , Height =

The greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck = Volume of prism divided by volume of cube

The greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck =

Thus, the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck is 24000 pieces.                                

the answer for this question is 38
