Solution:
Anusha needs to find a rectangular container large enough to hold a volume of 130 cubic inches
The volume of rectangular container is:
[tex]volume = length \times width \times height[/tex]
Option A
Container with the dimensions 2 by 5 by 10 inches
Therefore, volume is given as:
[tex]Volume = 2 \times 5 \times 10 = 100[/tex]
Thus volume is 100 cubic inches
Option B
Container with the dimensions 3 by 4 by 10 inches
Therefore, volume is given as:
[tex]Volume = 3 \times 4 \times 10 = 120[/tex]
Thus volume is 120 cubic inches
Option C
Container with the dimensions 3 by 5 by 10 inches
Therefore, volume is given as:
[tex]Volume = 3 \times 5 \times 10 = 150[/tex]
Thus volume is 150 cubic inches
Option D
Container with the dimensions 4 by 2 by 10 inches
Therefore, volume is given as:
[tex]Volume= 4 \times 2 \times 10 = 80[/tex]
Thus volume is 80 cubic inches
Thus Container with the dimensions 3 by 5 by 10 inches has a volume of 150 cubic inches, which is large enough to hold a volume of 130 cubic inches
