Using the given information find the length and width of the base: Perimeter = 2L + 2W L = 3W
Replace L in the first equation: Perimeter = 2(3W) + 2w 96 = 2(3W) +2W Simplify: 96 = 6W +2W 96 = 8w Divide both sides by 8: w = 96 / 8 w = 12 The width is 12 inches. The length = 3 x 12 = 36 inches.
Volume = L x W X H Volume = 36 x 12 x 14 Volume = 6,048 cubic inches.
