PLEASE HELP!!
Arla bakes banana bread in a pan that measures 10 in. long, 12 1/2 in. wide, and 2 in. tall.
She decides to cut pieces of bread that measure 2 in. by 2 1/2 in. by 2 in.
Enter the number of pieces of bread that Arla cuts from the pan into the box.

Respuesta :

First, we need to find the volume of the pan.  We do this by multiplying the length, width, and height together.  This is:

[tex]volume=10*12 \frac{1}{2} *2=250 in^{3} [/tex]

Next, we find the volume of the pieces of bread.  We do this the same way.

[tex]volume=2*2 \frac{1}{2}*2=10in^{3} [/tex]

Finally, we figure out how many times 10 can go into 250.  We do this by dividing 250 by 10.

250/10=25, so Arla can cut 25 pieces of bread.
