Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the washing machine = 5 ft x 5 ft x 6 ft

= 150 ft³

Volume of the delivery truck = 30 ft x 15 ft x 12½ ft

= 5,625 ft³

How many washing machines can be packed into the delivery truck?

Number of washing machine in the truck = Volume of the delivery truck / Volume of the washing machine

= 5,625 ft³ / 150 ft³

= 37 1/2

Or

= 37.5
