Question

Can someone answer question number 39. For me. This is for 7th grade summer math and I sadly just don't get it.

Answer 1

The question is basically asking you to calculate the new volume of the box that is 12x 7.5 x 2.5inches and to see if it has a larger volume than 162.5 sqin.

If you calculate the volume you should get 225 square inches.

Answer 2

The newer one has more volume because the original had 162.5 square inches and the new one has 225 square inches.
