Answer:

Volume of the box = [tex]2244inches^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of reams in one stack = 4

Number of stacks in the box = 3

Dimensions of a ream = 8.5 inches, 11 inches and 2 inches respectively

To find

Volume of one ream = Length × Breadth × Height

                                   = 8.5 × 11 × 2

                                   = [tex]187 in^{3}[/tex]

Volume of all the four reams in one stack = 187 × 4

                                                                      = [tex]748in^{3}[/tex]

Volume of all the three stacks in the box = 748 × 3

                                                                    = [tex]2244in^{3}[/tex]

∴ Volume of the box = [tex]2244inches^{3}[/tex]

Answer:

The answer is 2244 in3. hope this helps☻♥.
