would i use a^3?
No. Your rectangular prism has three different dimensions.
Jenna,
Remember the cake pans?
9 * 9 * 3 = 243
------------------------------
in a 9 in. sq. cake pan and 1 10 in. sq. cake pan, what is the difference in volume each pan will hold? assume each pan is 3 in. high. show step by step work and correct units with solution.

9 * 9 * 3 = 243
10 * 10 * 3 = 300
300 -243 = 57 in^3

i thought that was how you solve it. thanks!
To find the volume of a cigar box, you need to multiply its length, width, and height.
Given the dimensions of the cigar box as:
Length = 4 cm
Width = 14 cm
Height = 12 cm
The formula to calculate the volume is:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Substituting the given values into the formula:
Volume = 4 cm x 14 cm x 12 cm
Multiply the numbers:
Volume = 672 cubic cm
Therefore, the cigar box can hold 672 cubic cm of content.
Make sure to include the correct units when giving the answer, so the final answer is 672 cubic cm.
