@prowrestler do you have any ideas how to start this problem off?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no thats why i posted it

Okay, well we know to calculate volume of box A that the formula is:
\(V_a = l\times w\times h\)
Do you see where I am going?

Yes i do

Recall that the question says:
"To create box B, box A's dimensions were doubled."
\[V_b=l(2)\times w(2) \times h(2)\]
You could also shorten this by:
\[V_b=8(l\times w \times h)\]
Do you know what to do next?

no

What are you confused about?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
u multiply the volume by eight is what languageenthusiast is saying
