Front

If a cube with a side length of 3 cm holds 50 marbles, how many marbles can fit in a cube with a side length of 6 cm?

Back

A cube with a side length of 6 cm has a volume of 216 cm³, which can hold 216/27 * 50 = 400 marbles.

Front

Estimate how many marbles can fit in a cylindrical container with a radius of 4 cm and a height of 8 cm, given that a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and height of 10 cm holds 50 marbles.

Back

The estimated number of marbles is 71.

Front

If a rectangular prism with dimensions 4 cm by 5 cm by 6 cm holds 120 marbles, how many marbles can fit in a rectangular prism with dimensions 8 cm by 10 cm by 12 cm?

Back

The estimated number of marbles is 960.

Front

What is the relationship between the volume of a cube and the number of marbles it can hold?

Back

The volume of a cube determines how many marbles it can hold based on empirical data from similar shapes.

Front

How do you estimate the number of marbles a new container can hold based on empirical data?

Back

You can use the volume ratios of the new container to the known container to estimate the number of marbles.
