find the volume of a shape whose surface ares is 144 pi square inches

To find the volume of a shape, we need to know the shape itself. However, you mentioned that the surface area of the shape is 144π square inches. If you know the shape, you can use the formula specific to that shape to find its volume. Without knowing the specific shape, it's not possible to determine the volume solely based on the surface area.

Each shape has its own formula to calculate its volume, such as:

- Cube: Volume = side^3
- Sphere: Volume = (4/3)π * radius^3
- Cylinder: Volume = π * radius^2 * height
- Cone: Volume = (1/3) * π * radius^2 * height
- Prism: Volume = base area * height

If you can provide more information about the shape, I will be able to help you further in calculating the volume.
