Answer Given that, The edges of each tissue box measure $$6.5$$ inches. Volume of the tissue box = $$6.5 \times 6.5 \times 6.5$$ cubic inch The length, width and height of the shipping container are $$39 , 19.5 $$ and $$19.5$$ inches respectively. Volume of the shipping container = $$39 \times 19.5 \times 19.5$$ The greatest number of tissue boxes that will fit into one shipping container = $$\frac{39 \times 19.5 \times 19.5}{6.5 \times 6.5 \times 6.5}= 54$$
