Here is the problem: Find the volume and surface area of a rectangular prism 5 times 4 times 10.

2
00:00:07.045 --> 00:00:14.673
Compute the volume (cubic units) and total surface area (square units) of the solid from its dimensions in one length unit.

3
00:00:15.473 --> 00:00:16.065
Volume.

4
00:00:16.515 --> 00:00:19.638
Surface area: three pairs of rectangles.

5
00:00:20.438 --> 00:00:27.613
So the answer is Volume equals 200 cubic units; surface area equals 220 square units.

6
00:00:28.063 --> 00:00:39.151
Volume counts unit cubes inside a solid; surface area counts unit squares needed to wrap it. Doubling every length multiplies volume by 8 and surface area by 4.

7
00:00:39.950 --> 00:00:43.874
Volume 200 and surface area 220 are positive.
