How many 2 inch cubes can be placed completely placed inside a box that is 8 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 6 inches tall?Please show all work.

We see that the dimensions of the box are 8 inches * 2
inches * 6 inches. All the three sides are multiples of 2. So it is possible to fill the
entire volume of the box with 2-inch cubes without leaving any space
unoccupied.

To determine the number of cubes that can be
placed we need to find the volume of the box which is

8*2*6
= 96 inch^3

The volume of one cube is 2*2*2 = 8
inch^3

The number of cubes that can be placed
is 96/8 = 12.
