A triangular prism has a base that is 6 cm by 4 cm and a height of 8 cm. If all dimensions are tripled, what happens to the volume?

Volume depends on three dimensions: two dimensions of the triangular base and the prism’s length. Tripling each dimension multiplies the volume by 3 × 3 × 3 = 27. For example, the original volume is (½ × 6 × 4) × 8 = 96 cm³, and the enlarged volume is 27 × 96 = 2,592 cm³. So the volume becomes twenty-seven times the original volume.
