To find the number of 1/3 inch cubes needed to fill the box, we first need to calculate the volume of the box.
Volume of the box = width x length x height
Volume = (4/3) x 1 x (2/3)
Volume = 8/9 cubic inches
Now, each cube has a volume of (1/3)^3 = 1/27 cubic inches.
Number of cubes needed = Volume of the box / Volume of each cube
Number of cubes = (8/9) / (1/27)
Number of cubes = 8/3 x 27
Number of cubes = 72
Therefore, it takes 72 cubes of 1/3 inch each to fill the box.
