Sylvia had a small box. She filled it with 64 triangle pattern blocks. She said "The volume of this box is 64 cubic units." Do you agree with Sylvia? Why or why not?

Answer:

I do not agree with Sylvia

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 small box

64 triangle pattern blocks

Required

Is she right?

From the question, we understand that she fills the box with 64 blocks.

For the fact that she did this; it does not mean that the volume of the small box is 64 cubic units (even if she filled the box completely and the triangle pattern blocks are identical)

The reason for this is that, the volume of each box may not be 1 cubic unit.

So, first she needs to determine the volume of each pattern block, then multiply by 64. If the result is 64, then the volume of the box is 64 cubic units.

Since, it is not stated, we will not make any assumptions.

Hence, I do not agree with Sylvia.
