The volume of each small box is 8 cubic feet volume of each large box is 23 cubic feet. There were 2 more small boxes shipped than large boxes and the total volume of all boxes was 171 cubic feet. .

Answer 1

23L+8S=171

S=2+L

23L+ 8(2+L) = 171

23L+8L+16=171

31L= 155

L=155/31= 5 Large

S = 7 Small

23(5)+8(7)=115+56=171
