Question

A box of cereal has a width of 4 inches, and a length of 8 inches and a height of 12 inches. What is the volume of the box, in cubic inches?

Use the formula , where V represents the volume, l represents the length, w represents the width, and h represents the height.

Answer 1

`\text{Volume of box of cereal}=384\text{ in}^3`

Explanation:

We have been given that a box of cereal has a width of 4 inches, and a length of 8 inches and a height of 12 inches.

To find the volume of our give box we will use volume of cuboid formula.

`\text{Volume of cuboid}=l*w*h`, where,

`l=\text{Length of cuboid}`,

`w=\text{Width of cuboid}`,

`h=\text{Height of cuboid}`.

Upon substituting our given values in volume formula we will get,

`\text{Volume of box of cereal}=\text{8 in*4 in*12 in}`

`\text{Volume of box of cereal}=384\text{ in}^3`

Therefore, the volume of box of cereal is 384 cubic inches.

Answer 2

Hey there,

Formula: V = lwh

Plug in and solve:

V = (8)(4)(12)

V = 384 inches

Hope I helped!
