Yeah Whoa Okay I say team Asham uppers Got another

00:05

box here Six by ten by four Kyle has blocked

00:09

cubes that each have side lengths of two inches How

00:12

many of these will fit into the box above fun

00:17

Fact The volume of the cube is its side length

00:21

to the third power or cubed Yeah that's why I

00:24

got this fancy name Mathematicians are oh so good at

00:26

labeling things Apparently while Kyle needs find a volume of

00:29

the box Because volume measures how much three dimensional space

00:33

there is inside And that space is going to be

00:35

filled with bunch cubes Right So the total cubic inches

00:38

is four times ten times six at two hundred forty

00:41

cubic inches We gotta find the volume of each of

00:43

the cubes to see how much space they take up

00:46

while sitting in the box All right well let's see

00:48

uh one of Cuba's two inches And so we're going

00:51

to take eight cubic inches per cube Right So lastly

00:55

we got to see how many of these fun little

00:57

cubes can neatly fit inside the box Or rather how

01:01

the space in the box can be divided up for

01:04

the cubes there right So if it's two hundred forty

01:06

cubic inches total and assuming the cubes fit in there

01:09

neatly with no air space we can divide them by

01:12

the eight cubic inches they are each And while the

01:15

answer is just two forty divided by age which is 00:01:17.56 --> [endTime] thirty cubes and that's it
