C.1,000
D.10,000

Respuesta :

Answer: I believe the answer would be 100 because there are or should be more than 100 M&M's in the jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

C.1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The M&M jar has a square base with a length and width of 7 cm and a height of 6.5 cm.

So, the volume will be =[tex]7\times7\times6.5=318.5[/tex] cubic cm.

The volume of an M&M candy is approx 0.636 cubic centimeters.

If there are 100 M&M`s in the jar, that means the volume of each candy is [tex]318.5/100=3.185[/tex] cubic cm which is very large.

If there are 1000 M&M`s in the jar, that means the volume of each candy is [tex]318.5/1000=0.3185[/tex] cubic cm which is small.

So, we can take option C as the answer.
