    Given:

    50 earring boxes with a measure of 1 inch each side

    volume of boxes = a³ = 1³ = 1 in³

    total volume of boxes = 1 in³ * 50 boxes = 50 in³

    volume of a rectangular prism = length * width * height

    50 in³ = length * width * height

    Let us assume that the height is 1 in.

    length and width can be factored:

    50 x 1

    25 x 2

    10 x 5

    I can only make 3 rectangular prisms
