A storage box has a square base with sides of 9 inches and a height of 15 inches. Find its volume.

9 in15 in9 in

Correct Answer

1,215 in³

Explanation

Since the base is square (9 in × 9 in), use \(V = lwh\):

\[V = 9 \times 9 \times 15 = 81 \times 15 = 1{,}215 \text{ in}^3\]

The volume is 1,215 in³. Alternatively: the area of the square base is \(B = 9^2 = 81\) in², then \(V = Bh = 81 \times 15 = 1{,}215\) in³.
