Answer 1

a)
V = 20 * 21 * 3
V = 1260 cubic cm

b)
1260/30 = 42 cubic cm

I'll be glad to check your answers for the other two.

Answer 2

for c) can you cut them in rectangles? with rows of 3 and colums of 14?

1260cm/42cm=30cm so i divided 42 by 3 and got 14.

Answer 3

Right. Each piece would be 14 by 14 by 3 cm.

Answer 4

d) 4.5 cubic cm because 21cm / 14=1.5*3 =4.5 cubic cm???

can you please confirm this?
