    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area will be increased by 4 times and volume will be increased by 8 times

    Area of rectangular prism = 2 (lb+bh + hl)

    When sides are doubled, Area = 2 (2l * 2b + 2b * 2h + 2h*2l)

    = 4 * 2 (lb+bh + hl)

    Volume of rectangular prism = lbh

    When sides are doubled, Volume = 2l * 2h * 2b = 8 lbh
