Katie needs to figure out how much space a shoebox takes up it is 14 1/2 inches long 5 inches high in 6 1/2 in wide what is a shoe boxes volume

The shoe box is 471.25 in³ (471 and 1/4 in³)

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you need to know the formula for volume (Length * Width * Height) so we take our measurements and multiply them so I do 14.5 * 5 * 6.5 and get 471.25 or you can do 14 1/2 * 5 * 6 1/2 and get 1885/4 which simplified is 471 1/4 so then you cube the unit so the answer is 471 1/4 in³

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

36 girls

step-by-step explanation:

the 48 boys is 4 parts of the ratio

divide 48 by 4 to obtain one part of the ratio

= 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

3 parts = 3 × 12 = 36 ← number of girls
