Answer:

9 packages of beads

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of cuboid = area of base × height

⇒ volume of jewelry box = (15 × 12) × 6

                                          = 180 × 6

                                          = 1080 in³

Given:

  • 1 package of beads = 120 in³

Number of packages of beads = volume of box ÷ volume of 1 package of beads

⇒ Number of packages of beads = 1080 ÷ 120

                                                        = 9
