Respuesta :

Answer:

  B.  2 blocks per cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume in cubic inches is the product of the dimensions in inches. The ratio of blocks per cubic inch is found by dividing the number blocks by the number of cubic inches. (Effectively, "per" means "divided by".)

  (240 blocks)/((6 in)(4 in)(5 in)) = 240/120 blocks/in³ = 2 blocks/in³

Answer:

B. 2 blocks per cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Students conducted a study of different sized containers and found that the box shown held 240 blocks. The empirical ratio of blocks per cubic inch is 2 blocks per cubic inch.
