Answer 1

To determine the volume of the box, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism, which is:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]

Given the measurements you provided, the dimensions of the box are:

- Length: 4 cm
- Width: 3 cm
- Height: 2 cm

Now, substituting these values into the formula, we calculate the volume:

\[
\text{Volume} = 4 \, \text{cm} \times 3 \, \text{cm} \times 2 \, \text{cm} = 24 \, \text{cm}^3
\]

Since each sugar cube takes up 1 cm³, the number of sugar cubes that will fit in the box is equal to the volume of the box:

\[
\text{Number of sugar cubes} = \text{Volume of the box} = 24
\]

Now, we can complete the sentences:

1. The volume of the box is measured in **cubic centimeters (cm³)**.
2. The number of sugar cubes that will fit in the box is **24**.
