Volume

This is a unit of three-dimensional measure of space that comprises a length, a width and a height.

It is measured in units of cubic centimeters in metric, cubic inches or cubic feet.

Each gift box = 1/3 cubic feet of hard candies.

Large container:

  • base = 2 feet
  • Height = 1 1/2 feet
  • Width = 1 feet

Volume of the large container = base × height × width

= 2 × 1 1/2 × 1

= 2 × 3/2 × 1

= 6/2

= 3 cubic feet

Number of hard candies in the large container =Volume of the large container / Each gift box

= 3 ÷ 1/3

= 3 × 3/1

= 9 hard candies

Therefore, there are 9 hard candies in the large container.
