When the dimensions of a rectangular prism will be doubled, its volume won't only be doubled but it will be 8 times as much. The original volume of the rectangular prism is LxWxH. V= LxWxH V= (6m) (4m) (10m) V= 240m³

Answer:

If you double all of the dimensions of a rectangular prism, you create a similar prism with a scale factor of 2. ... Since a*b*c is the volume of the original prism, the volume of the larger prism is 23=8 times larger.
