DESCRIPTION
Use Multiple Strategies. Example. Mr. Tirado has boxes that measure 20” × 13” × 9” high. He wants to store them in a room 12’ × 10’ × 9’. If he stacks the boxes side by side and on top of each other but cannot stack the boxes on their sides, how many boxes can he store in this room?. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

ExampleMr. Tirado has boxes that measure 20” × 13” × 9” high. He wants to store them in a room 12’ × 10’ × 9’. If he stacks the boxes side by side and on top of each other but cannot stack the boxes on their sides, how many boxes can he store in this room?

Think: How can you organize this information to find the number of boxes? Would a picture help? Would it help to solve a simper problem first? How many boxes will fit in one layer on the floor of the room?

Convert the dimensions of the floor into inches and draw a diagram.
12 ft. = 144 in. long10 ft. = 120 in. wide

Think: How could the boxes fit into the room? Should the length of the boxes be placed along the length of the room or the width? What operation should be used to determine the number of boxes that can be place lengthwise along the length of the room?
![Page 7: Use Multiple Strategies](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568161ac550346895dd16bfe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Divide the length of a box into the length of the room to determine how many boxes one layer deep can fit in the room.
144 ÷ 20 = 7.2

Seven boxes can be placed along the length of the room. There will be 4 in. of space at one end of the room.

Think: How many boxes will fit this way on the floor if the width of a box is 13 in. and the width of the room is 120 in.?
120 ÷ 13 = 9.23
![Page 10: Use Multiple Strategies](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568161ac550346895dd16bfe/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Nine boxes will fit along the width of the room. There will be 3 in. of space on one side of the room.
![Page 11: Use Multiple Strategies](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568161ac550346895dd16bfe/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Think: How many boxes will fit on the floor of the room?
7(9) = 63If the boxes are placed in the room in this manner, there will be 63 boxes per layer with little wasted space.

Think: How high can the boxes be stacked?
![Page 14: Use Multiple Strategies](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568161ac550346895dd16bfe/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The room, is 9 ft. high, which is 108 in. tall, so a stack of exactly 12 layers of boxes should fit into the room, assuming the door allows you to stack them all the way to the ceiling.

Think: How many boxes can be stored in the room in this configuration?
63(12) = 756 boxes can be stored in the room.

Think: Is this the most efficient way to use the room? Is there any way more boxes could be stored in the room? What problem-solving processes were used to solve this problem?
![Page 17: Use Multiple Strategies](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568161ac550346895dd16bfe/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
There is little wasted space in this configuration. This seems to be very efficient. Several processes were used, including drawing a diagram, selecting correct operations, and guess and check.
