It is quadrupled.


If you double the surface area of a box does it change?

Your question is a bit difficult to understand. Of course, if the box surface area is doubled, then the box is bigger. I suppose two valid questions are, if the sides are all increased by the same factor, what is this factor, and a second question is what is the new volume as compared to the initial one. If we look at the front face of the box, the area is height x width or A= H X W. So, if our length and with are multiplied by some factor, I will call X, to double the area, we have 2 A = H * X * W *X or X2*H*W =2A and if I substitute L*W for A, and cancel the A on each side, X2 = 2 or X = sqrt of 2. The same calculation can be made for the sides of the box, and you will see the factor is square root of 2 or 1.414. Now the second question is how much does the volume change. Since each side is larger by 1.414 and volume equals Height * width * depth, the volume increase by Factor = (2 1/2)3 = 2 3/2 or 2*sqrt(2) = 2*1.414 = 2.828 The box with double the surface area will have 2.828 more volume.


What is the volume of a cube with side length 4?

The volume of a cube is the side cubed, so a cube with a side length of 4 has a volume of 43 = 64.

How do the volumes of the cube compare to each other?

Side = 3 units, volume = 27 cu units, side = 6 units, volume = 216 cu units. The side is increased by a factor of 2 and the volume is increased by a factor of 8, ie 23 If the side were increased by a factor of 3, we would thus expect the volume to increase by a factor of 33 ie 27, so: side 9 units, volume 729 cu units which is indeed 27 x 27. To summarise: the volume increases by the cube of the factor by which the side increases.


Suppose that each dimension of a prism is increased by ten percent by what percent does its volume increase?

A cardboard box has a length of 3 feet height of 2 feet and depth of 2 feet If the length and depth are doubled by what percent does the volume of the box change?

300% The volume of the original box is ?. The volume of the box with the length and depth doubled is ?. The amount of change in volume is 60 - 15 = 45. The percent change is the amount of change in volume divided by the original volume:
