Question

The volume of a prism is 373 ft. If the

dimensions are doubled, what will be the new
volume?

Answer 1

2984 ft^3

Explanation:

Volume of a prism = width x height x length

If dimensions are doubled, the volume given the increase in dimension is :

8V =( 2 X width) x (2 x height) x (2 x length)

Thus, when dimensions are doubled, the volume of the prism increases by 8

373 x 8 = 2984 ft
