Abox in the shape of a rectangular prism, with dimensions 12 inches by 18 inches by 12 inches, can hold exactly 12 cubes measuring 6 inches on each side. if the length and width of the base are doubled, how many cubes could the new box hold?
18
24
48
96

The correct answer is 48 cubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the rectangular prism = L = 12 inches

Breadth of the rectangular prism = B = 18 inches

Height of the rectangular prism = H = 12 inches

Volume of the rectangular prism ,V=

Number of cubes hold by the rectangular prism = n = 12 cubes

Volume of the rectangular prism when length and base are doubled:

Number of cubes that can be hold by the new volume of rectangular prism : n'

The correct answer is 48 cubes.

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
