A manager at a shipping company will purchase boxes in the shape of right rectangular prisms. He wants the volume of each box to be exactly 98 cubic feet. Which figure shows a box with the dimensions, in feet (ft), that the manager will purchase? You have 4 options... which one do you think is correct

the first one

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we want to find the volume of each rectangular prism

Which ever prism has an exact volume of 98 is the correct answer

( note that volume of a rectangular prism = length times width times height )

For the first answer choice

4 * 3.5 * 7 = 98

We get an outcome of 98, which means that the first one could possibly be the correct answer however lets find the volume of the rest of the prisms just to be safe.

For the second one

6.25 * 7 * 2 = 87.5

87.5 ≠ 98 therefore the second choice is not correct

For the third one

3 * 6.5 * 5 = 97.5

97.5 ≠ 98 therefore the third choice is not correct

For the fourth one

7.5 * 1 * 14 = 105

105 ≠ 98 therefore the fourth choice is not correct

So we can conclude that the first answer choice is correct
