Question

Carolyn mailed a package on Monday and a package on Tuesday. Both packages were in the shape of a rectangular prism. The dimensions of Monday's package were twice those of Tuesday's package.

By what scale factor is the volume of Monday's package larger than the volume of Tuesday's package?

Answer 1

If the dimensions are doubled, then the resulting volume is 8 times greater than original volume.
{ h L w, 2h 2L 2w } -> { h L w, 8 h L w }
