8. Each block in a child’s set of building blocks is 15 cm long, 10 cm wide, and 5 cm high. Suppose you put the blocks in a box that is 50 cm long, 35 cm wide, and 30 cm high.

Question

Suppose you arrange the blocks neatly in layers. How many different ways can you layer the blocks? How many blocks fit in the box each way?

Answer 1

35 = 5*7 so only the 5cm blocks will work in that dimension
30 = 15*2 = 10*3 so there are various ways to work those numbers
See what you can do.

Answer 2

i still dont understand
