Question

Mr.Addison is building a sandbox shaped like a rectangular prism.The sandbox is 8 feet long,6 feet wide,and 1.5 feet deep.How many cubic feet of sand will the sandbox hold?

Answer 1

 multiply the 3 numbers together

8x6x1.5 = 72 cubic feet

Answer 2

Answer:   72 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mr.Addison is building a sandbox shaped like a rectangular prism.

Then , the dimension of sandbox (l w h) is given by :-

8 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 1.5 feet deep.

We know that the volume of rectangular prism is given by :-

$V=l\times w\times h$

Then , the volume of sandbox is given by :-

$V=8\times 6\times 1.5=72\text{ cubic feet}$

Hence, the  volume of sandbox = 72 cubic feet
