A rectangular prism has sides that are 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm.  Another rectangular prism has side lengths that are 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm.  How many times larger is the volume of the second than the first?
8 times larger.  3 x 4 x 5 = 60 centimeters

6 x 8 x 10 = 480 cubic centimeters


Alternately, because 6 = 3 x 2, 8 = 4 x 2, and 10 = 5 x 2, 6 x 8 x 10 = (3 x 2) x (4 x 2) x (5 x 2), or 3 x 4 x 5 x 2 x 2 x 2

If you double the length of one side of a rectangular prism, but do not change any other side, how will the volume change?  Prove your answer with an example.
It will double.  Examples may vary, but if you take a 1 x 1 x 1 cube (1 cu. cm) and double one side, it becomes a 2 x 1 x 1 (2 cu. cm) rectangular prism

True or false: If you double all sides of a rectangular prism, you double it's surface area.  Prove your answer with an example.
False.  A 1 x 1 x 1 cube has a surface area of 6 sq. cm.  A 2 x 2 x 2 cube has a surface area of 24 sq. cm.
