What happens to the volume of a rectangular prism when its length is tripled? A. it is doubledB. it remains the sameC. it is tripledD. it is multiplied by 27

Answer :

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the next formula:

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=l\cdot w\cdot h \\ \\ l=\text{length} \\ w=\text{width} \\ h=\text{height} \end{gathered}[/tex]

If you triple the length you get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=3l\cdot w\cdot h \\ \\ V=3(l\cdot w\cdot h) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, if just the length of a rectangular prism is tripled the volume is also tripled
