Solution
Given data
Length = 1.25 in
Width = 2 in
Height = 0.45in
Required: To find the volume.
Step 1
The net can be transformed into a rectangular prism or a cuboid. Therefore, the shape is that of a rectangular prism or cuboid.
Step 2
Write the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism.
[tex]\text{The volume of a rectangular prism or cuboid (V) = Length}\times Width\times\text{Height}[/tex]Step 3
Substitute in the values and find the volume of the cuboid.
[tex]V\text{ = 2}\times0.45\times1.25=1.125in^3[/tex]Hence, the volume capacity of the box = 1.125in³
