A rectangular prism has a volume of 54 cubic feet. If the length is doubled, the width is tripled, and the height is quadrupled, what is the new volume of the prism.
:
It would be (2 * 3 * 4) * 54 = 1296 cu ft
:
You can prove this: Assume the original is 6 * 3 * 3 (which is 54)
The new size:
2(6) * 3(3) * 4(3) =
12 * 9 * 12 = 1296
