Question

a company sells snack-size boxes of raisins with dimensions 5 in. by 2.5 in. by 1.5 in., each weighing 2 oz. They want to make a family-size box that would be 7.5 in. by 3.75 in. by 2.25 in. What would be the weight of the family-size box of raisins?

Answer 1

5 * 2.5 * 1.5 = 18.75 cubic in = 2 oz.

7.5 * 3.75 * 2.25 = 63.28 cubic in

2 (63.28 /18.75) = 6.75 oz. family size

Answer 2

Thank you
