Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of box = length x breadth x height
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of the box in inches:-
\n" ); document.write( "36 x 48 x 60 = 103680 inches^3
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of cone = 1/3 x π x radius^2 x height
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of cone = 1/3 x π x 1.5^2 x 5
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of cone = 11.78 inches^3
\n" ); document.write( "103680/11.78 = 8801 cones are filled.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
