*see attachment for the possible choice answers showing the boxes and dimensions

Answer:

Box D = 27 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out which has the greatest volume, we need to calculate the volume of each box given in the option using the formula of the volume of a rectangular prism = w × h × l.

Where w = width; h = height; and l = length.

Thus, the volume for the boxes are as follows:

=>Box A:

V = w × h × l

V = 3 × 1 × 5

V = 15 ft³

=>Box B:

V = w × h × l

V = 2 × 3 × 4

V = 24 ft³

=>Box C:

V = w × h × l

V = 1 × 2 × 7

V = 14 ft³

=>Box D:

V = w × h × l

V = 3 × 3× 3

V = 27 ft³

The shipping box with the largest volume is box D with a volume of 27 ft³
