Question

A rectangular prism has a volume of 540, if the length, width and height are all reduced 1/3 the size of the original. What is the new volume?

Answer 1

20 units³

Explanation:

Since all dimensions are being reduced by 1/3, that means that the total volume will decrease by 1/3 * 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/27 the size of its original.

That means that the new volume is 1/27 * 540 = 20 units³
