Math Dimension Question! Urgent!?
What would be the dimensions of a rectangular prism with a volume of 120?

It could be a few of them.
How you figure it out is by finding 3 numbers that when multiplied together equal 120.
So for example you could do 2x3x20
3x4x10
1x1x120
5x2x12
And there are many more. Any of the above would work. Hope I helped.

An infinite number of dimensions are possible, as long as the length times width times height equals 120.
A few examples:
1 by 1 by 120
2 by 3 by 20
6 by 4 by 5

Volume of rectangular prism = 120
Length * Width * Height = 120
So, there are infinite possible dimensions.
A few of them are:
1 * 1 * 120 = 120
2 * 5 * 12 = 120
And even ones involving decimals, like 2.323121 * 9.23231 * 5.594986419 = 120 !
I hope that helps. :)

There is not a unique answer. If the dimensions are a by b by c then:
abc = 120
Pick some numbers. It could be
3 by 4 by 10
and there are an infinite number of other possibilities.

A cardboard container created from 6 oblong factors might have 2 factors of the container having 2 equivalent aspects. Eg. the part of the precise floor of the container = part of the backside floor of the container. with that argument, basically upload 2 x [(length) x (width)] + 2 x [(width) x (intensity)] + 2 x [(length) x (intensity)] => 2(8 x 5) + 2(5 x 3) + 2(8 x 3) = 158 cm^2

There are infinite possible dimensions.
Some are
1x1x120
2x2x30
