The box that contains the salt lick is 1 1/4 feet by 1 2/3 feet 5/6 feet. how many cubes of salt lick fit in the box?explain or show your reasoning.

24

Step-by-step explanation:

24 cubes. Reasoning varies. Sample reasoning: The length of the box

can fit or 5/4 : 5/12 =3 cubes. The width of the box can fit or 5/3 : 5/12 = 4 cubes.  The height of the box can fit 5/6 : 5/12 = 2 cubes. The box can fit

or 24 cubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the box = 5/6 ft

Width of the box = 5/4 ft

Height of the box = 5/3 ft

Sides of the cube salt lick = 5/12 ft

Number of salt lick in the box (length) = 5/6 ÷ 5/12

= 2 cubes.

Number of salt lick in the box (width) = 5/4 ÷ 5/12

= 3 cubes.

Number of salt lick in the box (length) = 5/3 ÷ 5/12

= 4 cubes.

Total number of salt lick = 4 × 3 × 2

= 24 cubes.
