In this question, we are going to compare two rectangular prisms.
00:06
Let's draw them.
00:08
Prism a is 3 by 2 by 1.
00:21
3 inches by 2 inches by 1 inch.
00:30
Prism b is 1 by 6.
00:50
6 inches, 1 inch, 1 inch, 1 inch.
00:59
The volume of each is six inches cubed.
01:08
Two times one times three, six times one times one.
01:16
The surface area of a is going to be two times three, which is six twice, top and bottom, one times three, twice for front and back, and two times one twice for left and right.
01:55
B, the surface area, is one by one, twice, plus six by one, four times.

Now we can look at the statements and decide which statements are true...
