Consider we need to find the dimensions and volume of the box.
Given:
The shape of the lamp is a rectangular prism.
It measures 14 high, 9 wide, and 3 long.
There is 1 all around the lamp for bubble wrap
To find:
The dimensions and volume of the box.
Solution:
Length of the box is:
[tex]3+2=5[/tex]
Width of the box is:
[tex]9+2=11[/tex]
Height of the box is:
[tex]14+2=16[/tex]
Therefore, the dimensions of the box are 5 by 11 by 16 units.
The volume of the box is:
[tex]V=l\times w\times h[/tex]
Where, l is length, w is width and h is height.
Putting [tex]l=5, w=11, h=16[/tex], we get
[tex]V=5\times 11\times 16[/tex]
[tex]V=880[/tex]
Therefore, the volume of the box is 880 cubic units.
