The problem
Allister and Sam are refilling the fridge with milk cartons. They want to save time by
transporting the milk boxes in a bigger container so they can carry more at once.

3cm
10cm
4.5cm
How many boxes can they fit into the container?
2 milk containers in hight can fit normally but 2 milk containers have to lay down add up the hight and it will be 28cm. if you go across to the length if you put in 6 milk to the side it will be 27cm but add 1 more milk the measurement will be 30.5cm
you won't have to do the width is the same. 28 milk cartons are 7 milk cartons will be the length and then 21 milk containers than do the same to both widths that will be 64 then the east side it would be 91 then I could see that is how much milk could fit in.
First, I did three bullet points because I want to show how I measured the milk carton
