calculista
we know that
the cube is a prism rectangular with minimum surface area
then
Volume cube=b³=80-------------> b=4.31 ft

the problem is asking me for a whole number

therefore
b=4 ft------------> I assume a rectangular prism of square base
V=b²*h--------------> h=V/b²=80/4²=5 ft

the answer is 4 ft x 4 ft x 5 ft  number dimensions of the container
