Let’s ReviewExtension Activities
Billy is playing with blocks. He lays out a layer of blocks that is 8 blocks by 3 blocks. Then, he tells his mom that he plans to add on 4 more layers, just like that bottom layer.
What will the volume of Billy’s structure be, once he is finished adding layers?
Let’s ReviewExtension Activities
This tower is built of blocks that are one cubic foot, each. What is the volume of this tower, in cubic inches?
Let’s ReviewQuick Quiz
