Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:36 cubes.Step-by-step explanation:to find the number of cubes:first, identify the volume of the box using the formula: LxWxH18cm x 6cm x 9cm = 972 cm³next, identify the volume of the cube to be placed:given: cube with a side length of 3 cmThus, volume of the cube is 3³=27cm³To identify the number of cubes, divide the volume of the box to the volume of the cubes. 972/27 = 36. Thus we need 36 cubes.
