Cliff is constructing two similar boxes shaped as similar rectangular prisms. The smaller box has a height of 15 inches and a square base of side length 12 inches. If the larger box has a height of 20 inches, what is its volume? 1620 cubic inches 3840 cubic inches 5120 cubic inches 6400 cubic inches

5120 Cubic inches. Since smaller box has height of 15 and the larger box has 20, it means that the it is 3/4 and if 12 is 3, 16 is 4 so 16^2 since it's side length and I got 256 and I multiplied that number to 2o and I got 5120. Check it.
