The volume of the cereal box is blank cubic inches.

Answer 1

Answer: 1428

Step-by-step explanation: Length of the cereal box = 8 1/2 inches

= 17/2 inches

Width of the cereal box = 3 1/2 inches

= 7/2 inches

Height of the cereal box = 12 inches

Then

Volume of the cereal box = Length * Width * Height

= (17/2) * (7/2) * 12 cubic inches

= 17 * 7 * 12 cubic inches

= 1428 cubic inches

Answer 2

V = 255

Explanation:

Cereal box is a rectangular prism.

Rectangular Prism formula:

V = whl

Given:

w = 2.5

h = 12

l = 8.5

Work:

V = whl

V = (2.5)(12)(8.5)

V = 255
