Which is true about the volume or surface area of these prisms? A. The volume of A is greater than the volume of B. B. The volume of B is greater than the volume of A. C. The surface area of A is greater than the surface area of B. D. The surface area of B is greater than the surface area of A. @563blackghost @alibaby @Qwertty123

What are the volumes of them both? @KJSaif and @Emmily1127

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Remember to find the volume you multiply... \(\Large{length \times height\times width=volume}\)

KjSaif (kjsaif):

160 for A and 160 for b

KjSaif (kjsaif):

really could you double check

563blackghost (563blackghost):

i used the wrong picture..sorry .... i keep on making that mistake...

KjSaif (kjsaif):

lol it's cool

563blackghost (563blackghost):

You are correct ^^ but since they are equal and we have no answer choice we can cross out answer choices A and B....

KjSaif (kjsaif):

yeah

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Now we need to determine the surface area....Now the surface area equation is... \(\huge\color{green}{2(wl+hl+hw)}\) We input the length, width, and height where they belong... \(\Large{A: l=4~, w=5,~ and~ h=8...}\) \(\Large{B: l=10,~ w=8,~ and ~h=2....}\)

KjSaif (kjsaif):

A = 184 and B = 232

KjSaif (kjsaif):

so the answer is D

563blackghost (563blackghost):

\(\Huge{Correct!~Great~Job!:)}\)

KjSaif (kjsaif):

YES!

563blackghost (563blackghost):
