Question

You are planning to make an open rectangular box from an 8-in.-by-15-in. piece of cardboard by cutting congruent squares from the corners and folding up the sides. What are the dimensions of the box of largest volume you can make this way, and what is its volume?

Answer 1

Should be 4x5x4!! If you take 8•15, you get 120!! There are six sides on a rectangular prism!! Thus leaving a value of 20 per side!! And I noted to properly equal out with the maximum volume it should mean 4•5=20!! Thus being 4•4•5
