    A. No.

    B. Triple the length

    C. 6 Square feet

    D. It has increased 3 times

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A. Because doubling the wide (2 ft) equals 4ft.

    4 x 2 x 1 = 8 cubic feet. Still not enough to be 12 cubic feet.

    B. By tripling the length (1 ft), it would be 3 feet.

    3x2x2 = 12 cubic feet

    C. 3x2 = 6 square feet

    D. Before it used to be 2 square feet, now it is 6.

    Three times two.
