(2b) A rectangular prism measures 2 & 2/5 inches by 3 & 1/5 inches by 2 inches. How many cubes with edge length 1/5 inch fit in the prism? *

Respuesta :

Answer:

1920 cubes.

Step-by-step explanation

Turn both the mix numbers into improper fractions.

2 2/5 = 12/5

3 1/5 = 16/5

Then you will turn 1/5 into its reciprocal and multiply both the improper fractions by it. You can just casually multiply 2 and 5.

12/5 * 5/1 = 12

16/5 * 5/1 = 16

2 * 5 = 10

Next you multiply all together to get 1920 cubes.

(I could be missing a step. I apologize if I did.)
