Question

Movie theater uses popcorn boxes in the shape of a right rectangular prism each box has length of 9 width of 4 and height of 12 what is the volume of popcorn the box can hold

Answer 1

To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]

In this case, the box has the following dimensions:
- Length = 9 units
- Width = 4 units
- Height = 12 units

Now plug the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = 9 \times 4 \times 12
\]

Calculating this step-by-step:

1. First, calculate \(9 \times 4\):

\[
9 \times 4 = 36
\]

2. Next, multiply that result by the height (12):

\[
36 \times 12 = 432
\]

Therefore, the volume of the popcorn box is:

\[
\text{Volume} = 432 \text{ cubic units}
\]
