The volume of Rectangular prism A is 120 inches and the volume of rectangular prism is 960 inches. the volume of prism b is 8 times the size of prism A

Answer:

120 for prism A.

The answer for prism B is 960.

Prism B's volume is 840 greater/higher than prism A's.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x 4 x 5

6 x 4 = 24

24 x 5 = 120

Checking work:

5 x 6 x 4

5 x 6 = 30

30 x 4 = 120

Double checking work:

5 x 4 x 6

5 x 4 = 20

20 x 6 = 120

_____________

12 x 8 x 10

12 x 8 = 96

96 x 10 = 960

Checking work:

10 x 8 x 12

10 x 8 = 80

80 x 12 = 960

Double checking work:

10 x 12 x 8

10 x 12 = 120

120 x 8 = 960

____________

960 - 120 = 840

-120

840

Double checking work

840 + 120 = 960

+120

960
