OpenStudy (lizz123):

You have to multiply the length, width, and height

OpenStudy (janu16):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

well, length width and height play a role, but if we multiply them altogether we get volume

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the sides of the box can be seperated and folded out, to make one lone rectangle that is 8 high, and the base perimeter wide and the base is just the base ....
