Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Textbook answer: She will need 8 times as much sand. In any of the volume formulas, if the dimensions are all doubled, the volume increases by a factor of 8.

My answer: double = 2. Cubed = ^3. 2^3 = 8

Answer 2

I would say no

Step-by-step explanation:

I say no because Shayla's dimensions are twice the size does not mean that there is a need for double the amount of sand but I could be wrong.
