Volume of a Cuboid

Part of the Surface Area & Volume section of Coddy's Geometry journey. Lesson 1 of 60.

A box is 4 cubes long, 3 cubes deep and 2 cubes high. The bottom of the box holds $4\cdot 3 = 12$ cubes. The box is 2 cubes high, so it holds $12\cdot 2 = 24$ cubes. The number of cubes that fill a box is its volume.

$V = l\cdot w\cdot h$

$A box 4 long, 3 deep and 2 high$

Challenge

Find the volume V of the box.

Then press Check.
