Answer:

L x W x H

Explanation:

L = length

W = width

H = height

Find your L, W, and H. Multiply them by each other.

Example:

L x W x H

3 x 4 x 9

3 x 4 = 12

12 x 9 = 108

The order of the L, W, and H does not matter as long as you multiply.

Example:

L x W x H

W x H x L

4 x 9 x 3

4 x 9 = 36

36 x 3 = 108

(Work) 36 x 2 = 72... 72 + 36 = 108

1 2 3

because 1 + 2 = 3, 36(Which is 1) + 72 (Which is 2) = 108 (Which is 3)

Hope this answers your question.
