What is the volume of a rectangular prism?

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape that has two at the top and bottom and four are lateral faces.

The volume of a rectangular prism=Length X Width X Height

The volume of a box is the product of the base area and the height of the box,

Volume = base area × height

For the smaller base box,

base = 5 cm by 5 cm,

Therefore, the base area of the smaller base box

= 5 cm × 5 cm

= 25 cm².

Let the height of the smaller base box be h

The volume of the small box = 25 cm² × h

For the larger base box,

The base of 10 cm by 10 cm

Therefore, the base area of the larger base box

= 10 cm × 10 cm  

= 100 cm².

Let the height of the large base box be H.

The volume of the larger base box = 100 cm² × H

Since both boxes have the same volume so,

100 cm² × H  = 25 cm² × h

h / H = 4

h = 4H

Hence, The height of the box with the smaller base is 4 times larger than that of the box with the larger base.
