2. Heaven stacks cube-shaped beads that measure 1 centimeter on each edge in a storage box. The box can hold 6 layers of 24 cubes with no gaps or overlaps. What is the volume of Heaven's storage box?

• What are the dimensions of the base of the box? 
• What operation can you use to find the area of the base shape?

 Show two ways you can solve this problem.
Hint (Base= length x width)  Base and Area are one and the same.

V= Length x Width x Height
V= Base x height

3. What if,  each cube-shaped bead measured 2 centimeters on each edge? How would the dimensions of Heaven's storage box change? How would the volume change? Explain Your Thinking.
