a solid cube with edges of one foot is divided into cubes with edges of six inches. if these cubes are stacked one on top of the other, how many feet high is the stack from top to bottom
Convert 1 cu ft to cu/inches: 12^3 = 1728 cu/in
Find the vol of cube with 6" edges: 6^3 = 216 cu.in
Find how many of these cube in 1728 cu/in
1728%2F216 = 8 ea 6" cubes
"how many feet high is the stack from top to bottom?"
8 * 6" = 48" which is 4 ft
