Anna is collecting boxes of cereal to deliver in a food bank. The volume of each cereal box is 324 cubic inches. The picture shows the cereal boxes she has collected so far. A large delivery box holds three times as many boxes as Anna collected.
About what is the volume of the delivery box?
The picture has 12 cereal boxes. Since the delivery box holds three times as many cereal boxes as Anna collected, the delivery box holds 12 * 3 = 36 cereal boxes.
With each cereal box having a volume of 324 cubic inches, we have the total volume as:
V = 324 cubic inches * 36 cereal boxes
V = 11,664 cubic inches
