Answer:

23 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is the key to this question;

Calculate the volume of the cupcake;

3 × 3 × 3 = 27 inches^3

Then the volume of the box;

15 × 7 × 6 = 630 inches^3

Then divide the volume of the box by the volume of the cupcake to see how many can fit in;

630 ÷ 27 = 23.3333

;Hence you can fit... 23 cupcakes
