<pre wrap="">I am extremely close to being done with the assignment; however, I have come across problem when trying to find the weight of the shipping cube. You say it weighs 1.25 pounds per square foot but for some reason my brain cannot get past that part. Any help/pointer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

The wood is a constant thickness and is uniform throughout. As
such if I take a piece of the wood that is one foot long and one
foot wide (thickness does not change) it will weigh 1.25 pounds.
How we actually get the wood is irrelevant at this point -- we
just know that we have this wood for making the shipping cubes and
that it has this "density".<br>
