If Thomas wants a volume of 12 in3, what size does the cutout need to be? What would be the dimensions of this box?

If you want to know the size of the cut out in real numbers, all you have to do is simplify it. In this case, I divided by 2 getting 6 and then divided that by 2 getting 3.

This means that the dimensions in real numbers are 2x2x3.

Hope that this helped
