Remember the formula for the volume of a prism.

C

We will calculate the volume of the package, which is a rectangular prism. Let's see the picture!

The volume of a rectangular prism with length l, width w, and height h can be calculated using the following formula. V=l wh We are given that l= 8, w= 10, and h= 6. Let's substitute these values into the formula for the volume of a prism!
V=l wh
V= 8( 10)( 6)
480
The volume of the prism is 480 cubic inches. This corresponds to option C.
