The volume of a container is the amount of space in it.

From the complete question (see attachment), we have the following parameters

Fish cubes

[tex]\mathbf{Length = \frac 14ft}[/tex]

Shipping box

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 3\frac 34ft}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 3ft}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Height = 3\frac 14ft}[/tex]

(a) The number of cubes on the edges

To do this, we simply the dimensions of the boxes, by the length of the fish cube

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Length= 3\frac 34ft \div \frac 14 = 15}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 3\div \frac 14 = 12}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Height = 3\frac 14ft \div \frac 14 = 13}[/tex]

Hence, the number of cubes on the edges are: 15, 12 and 13

(b) The total number of cubes in the shipping box

To do this, we multiply the results of the computation in (a)

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Amount = Length \times Width \times Height}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Amount = 15 \times 12 \times 13}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Amount = 2340}[/tex]

Hence, the number of fish cubes in the box is: 2340
