1 liquid oz = 1.805 in^3 so

1.805 * 12 = 21.66 in^3

This problem cannot be answered spcifically without knowing the weight density of the box's contents.

Let's assume rho = 1 oz/in^3 is the weight density of something (soap powder for example).

Then the total weight is W = rho V, where V is the volume of the box the soap powder comes in. The box claims to hold W = 12 ounces. So if rho = 1 oz/in^3, then W = 12 = 1 V and V = 12/1 = 12 cubic inches. But if rho = 3, for example, W = rho V = 3 V = 12; so that V = 4 cubic inches.

Thus, as you can see, we really need to know the weight density before your question can be answered.

Ok, a box, like, say, a box of cookies. The ounce there means ounce by weight, and it depends on how dense the cookies are. Does your question really say box? What is in the box? You can convert fluid ounces to cubic inches, but not weight ounces.

Assuming the box you're referring to is a fluid ounce box

12 fluid ounce = 21.65625 inch^3
