  • Original volume=120=V
  • Change in volume=∆V=1/10

New volume


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow V∆V=(120)/(10)=12

Answer:

12 units³

Explanation:

original volume of box = 120 units³

If the box if it is scaled down by a factor of 1/10, then we multiply the original volume by 1/10:

120 x (1/10) = 120 ÷ 10 = 12 units³
