A shipping container holds 20 soft drink boxes. The dimensions of a soda box are 15 inches by 4 inches by 5 inches. What is the minimum size the shipping container could be?

6000 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we simply have to find the volume of the shipping container that will be just enough to contain the 20 soda boxes.

To do this, we find the volume of each soda box and multiply it by the total number of soda boxes held by the shipping container.

Volume of the box = L * B * H

L = length = 15 in

B = breadth = 4 in

H = height = 5 in

V = 15 * 4 * 5 = 300 in³

This is the volume of each soda box.

The volume of 20 soda boxes will then be:

V = 20 * 300 = 6000 in³

This is the volume of 20 soda boxes and hence, the minimum size the shipping container can be.
