Step-by-step explanation:

the box is

9 in × 3.5 in × 4.5 in = 141.75 in³

each block is

0.5 in × 0.5 in × 0.5 in = 0.125 in³ (1/8 in³)

so, we can fit

141.75 / 0.125 = 1134

blocks into the box.

and they fit neatly, as the dimensions of the box and the cubes allow a tight packing without any empty left over space in the box.
