Hardy is packing his book collection into a box. each book measures 4in by 6in by 1 inch. the box he uses measures 24in by 24in by 8 inches.

1. if hardy fills the box completely, what is the greatest number of books that fit into the box?
2. if hardy fills the box completely with the least number of layers, there will be (blank) books on the bottom layer.
3. to fill the box completely, hardy places 8 layers of books in the box. there are (blank) books in each layer.

you so much for ! just a mom who hates volume trying to her kid with volume.

1. 192 books.

2. 96 books.

3. 24 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's find the volume of each book and the volume of the box, this way:

Volume of a book = 4 * 6 * 1 = 24 inches ³

Volume of the box = 24 * 24 * 8 = 4,608 inches ³

2. If Hardy fills the box completely, what is the greatest number of books that fit into the box?

Greatest number of books = Volume of the box/Volume of a book

Greatest number of books = 4,608/24

Greatest number of books = 192

3. If Hardy fills the box completely with the least number of layers, there will be (blank) books on the bottom layer.

The height of the box is 8 inches, so it can only can hold 2 or 8 layers of books, since the books are 4 * 6 * 1 inches.

Greatest number of layers = Height of the box/Width of a book

Greatest number of layers = 8/1 = 8

Minimum number of layers = Height of the box/Height of a book

Minimum number of layers = 8/4 = 2

Upon saying that, we have:

Number of books per layer = Greatest number of books/Minimum number of layers

Number of books per layer = 192/2 = 96

4. To fill the box completely, Hardy places 8 layers of books in the box. There are (blank) books in each layer.

Number of books per layer = Greatest number of books/Number of layers

Number of books per layer = 192/8

Number of books per layer = 24
