How many 1/4 inch cubes does it take to fill a box with width 2 3/4 inches, length 3 1/2inches, and height 1 1/4 inches?

Answer 1

2 3/4, 3 1/2, 1 1/4

are 11/4 x 7/2 x 5/4 = 285/32

divide 285/32 by 1/4

= 285/32)(4) = 285/8 = 35.625

just a very rough guess rounding off the dimensions to 3 by 3 b y 1 would give 9. 9 divided by 1/4 = 36.

35.625 looks about right. in the ball park, in the right range.
