Tia built a small clubhouse out of cardboard boxes. The clubhouse is in the shape of a rectangular prism. It has a height of 4 feet and volume of 64 cubic feet. Draw a possible base for the clubhouse.

To find the dimensions of the base, you would use your formula for volume of a rectangular prism to solve for the area of the base.

V = lwh

64 = lw4; divide both sides by 4

16 = lw

This means the dimensions would need to have an area of 16 ft.².

2 feet x 8 feet would be a possible answer.
