length x width x height. So if you had an object that was 10cm long, 10cm wide and 10 heigh the volume would be 1000 cm3

What is the formula for measuring the volume of a box-shaped object?

-- Measure length, width, and height. -- Multiply (length) times (width) times (height). -- The result is the volume of the box-shaped object.


How can you calculate the volume of a rectangular object such as a shoe box?

Volume = Length * Width * Height.


What is found when you multiply length x width thickness and height of a box shaped object?

It looks like you meant width or thickness. This is the formula to calculate volume or capacity of a rectangular prism (a box).


How do the calculate the volume of a regular shaped box?

height x length x width


How would you find the volume of a box shaped object?

Measure the three dimensions ( length, width and height) and multiply them together


How can you measure the volume of an object if it is not shaped like a box.?

take a peice of string and see how long the amount is then measure the amount of string on to a ruler and that's your volume :)


How do you calculate how many will fit in a box?

This could be a relatively easy volume question or not. First you have to figure the volume of the box. This is Height x Length x Width. Then you find the volume of the object you want to put in the box. If they are rectangular the formula is the same. If they are spherical the equation is 4/3 Pi R^3. If they are oddly shaped the equation is more difficult or you must measure the volume by another means such as water displacement. Once you have the volume of the box and the volume of what you want to put in the box you just divide the later into the former and you have how many should fit in the box. Now an assumption of this solution assumes all the "free" space is occupied by the object you put in the box. If your solution needs an exact number in real life you have to figure out the amount of "free" space that is lost with each object placed in the box and add that into the calculation.


Why are cereal boxes are not shaped like a cone?

Cause the volume a box is wider than the volume of a cone and when we use shaped cone the cereal wont fit in


When the height of a box shaped object is multiplied by its width and lenght its volume is found?

That is correct. Volume is height x length x width.


Volume of a 11cm by 5cm box?

Since the depth of the box is unknown, it is impossible to calculate the volume of the box.


How do you calculate the volume of a block?

Block being a box: Height * Length * Depth = Volume Giving the three dimensions available.


What do you use to measure the vlume of a solid?

The method for determining the volume of a solid depends on its shape. The volume of a solid object with a regular geometric shape (rectangular box, cube, cylinder, sphere) can be determined using the volume formula for the shape. Because many objects are not regularly shaped their volume cannot be determined using a volume formula. The volume of these objects can be found by water displacement. A volume of water sufficient to cover the object is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume read. The object is added to the cylinder and the volume read again. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the object.
