A shipping company uses rectangular boxes with the following dimensions: What is the volume of one shipping box?
- Length: \( 12 \) inches
- Width: \( 8 \) inches
- Height: \( 10 \) inches
Students will extend volume reasoning to fractional edge lengths and related models.

A rectangular prism is 10 cm long, 6 cm wide, and 4 cm high. What is its volume?
The base is \(12 \times 8 = 96\) square inches. With a height of 10 inches, the volume is \(96 \times 10 = 960\) cubic inches.
Volume = length \(\times\) width \(\times\) height = \(5 \times 4 \times 3 = 60\) cm3.
Volume = \(6 \times 3 \times 4 = 72\) cubic feet.
Check each prism so there is only one match. A: \(10 \times 4 \times 3 = 120\). B: \(6 \times 5 \times 5 = 150\). C: \(8 \times 5 \times 4 = 160\). D: \(12 \times 3 \times 2 = 72\). Prism A has volume 120 cubic units.
Volume = \(10 \times 7 \times 5 = 350\) cubic inches.
Volume = \(9 \times 8 \times 3 = 216\) cubic meters.
Volume = \(20 \times 15 \times 6 = 1800\) cubic feet.
Volume is length \(\times\) width \(\times\) height: \(10 \times 6 \times 4 = 240\) cubic centimeters.
