Answer 1

 

 

 

To find how many bins fit into closet we have to find volume of Closet and Bin

 

Volume = Length * Width * Height

 

Volume of Closet = 60*36*72=155520 inch³

 

Volume of 1 Bin= 20*18*14= 5040 inch³

 

 

No. of bin fix in closet = Volume of Closet / volume of bin

 

                                  = 155520/5040

 

                                  = 30.85

 

So total number of bin fixed in closet = 30
