The volume of one block is given by:
2 inches x 3 inches x 2 inches = 12 cubic inches
Since Jeff is using three of these blocks to build the tower, the total volume of the tower is:
3 x 12 cubic inches = 36 cubic inches
Therefore, the answer is 36in2.

The capacity of the dump truck's bed is given by the product of its length, width, and height, which is:

8 feet x 5 feet x 4 feet = 160 cubic feet

To deliver 400 cubic feet of gravel, the dump truck must make:

400 cubic feet รท 160 cubic feet/trip = 2.5 trips

However, since the dump truck cannot make a fraction of a trip, it must make 3 trips to deliver 400 cubic feet of gravel. Therefore, the answer is 3 trips.
