Let's call the length and width of the base of the box "l" and "w", respectively. We know that the base area (l x w) is 630 square centimeters, so:
l x w = 630
We also know that the height of the box is 20 centimeters. So the volume of the box (V) is:
V = base area x height
V = (l x w) x 20
But we already know that l x w = 630, so we can substitute that in:
V = 630 x 20
V = 12,600 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the volume of the box is 12,600 cubic centimeters.
A box is shaped like a rectangular prism. The base area of the box is 630 square
centimetres, and the height is 20 centimetres. Determine the volume of the box.
