Respuesta :

First, calculate if it is possible to cover the 'bottom' of the prism with 1/4in cubes, as shown below

Therefore, to cover the bottom of the prism one needs

[tex]18*18+2*18=18*20=360[/tex]

360 cubes.

Now, considering the height of the prism,

[tex]\frac{3.25}{0.25}=13[/tex]

Thus, in total, one requires,

[tex]360*13=4680[/tex]

4680 cubes.

The answer is 4680 small cubes
