Dale joins three of his friends at the movies. They decide to share a jumbo box of popcorn to save money. A jumbo box is twelve inches on all sides. What is the volume of a jumbo box of popcorn?

1 answer

The volume of a cube (like a jumbo box of popcorn) is found by multiplying the length times the width times the height. In this case, all three dimensions are 12 inches:

Volume = 12 inches x 12 inches x 12 inches
Volume = 1,728 cubic inches

So the volume of a jumbo box of popcorn is 1,728 cubic inches.
