5. A company is deciding which box to use for their merchandise. The first box measures 8 inches by 6.25 inches by 10.5 inches. The second box measures 9 inches by 5.5 inches by 11.75 inches. Which box required more material to make? 6. If each box (from #5) used material that cost $0.03 per square inch to make, how much does a company save by choosing to make fifty boxes of the smaller box in comparison to fifty boxes of the larger box?

5. The second box required more material to make.

6. A company saves about $84.94 by choosing to make fifty boxes of the smaller box in comparison to fifty boxes of the larger box.

Step-by-step explanation:

5.  To solve this problem you need to find the volume of the boxes.

Volume of the first box.

v= 8 * 6.25 * 10.5

v= 525  

Second box volume

9 * 5.5 * 11.75 = 581.625

Which means the second box required more material to make because it has the greatest volume.

6. To solve this you have to multiply the volume of small and large boxes by 50 the multiply it by 0.03.

525 * 50 = 26250 * 0.03 = 785.5

581.625 *50 = 29081.25 * 0.03= 872.4375

872.4375 - 785.5  = 84.9375 which is about $84.94.
