If you created a second rectangular prism with the length doubled but the height halved (and the width stays the same), which would be the relation of the second volume to the first volume? \n" ); document.write( "

The volume of our first prism is
\n" ); document.write( "V = LWH
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "V = 3*4*6 = 72
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "The volume of the second prism is
\n" ); document.write( "V = LWH
\n" ); document.write( "however, we change the information and from above, we get
\n" ); document.write( "V = (2L)(.5H)W
\n" ); document.write( "which is
\n" ); document.write( "V = (2*3)(.5*4)(6) = 6*2*6 = 72
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "The volumes are still the same.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
