The volume of a rectangular prism is found using the following formula:

If we substitute our known values, then we can solve for the missing side.


Divide both sides of the equation by 12.


We now know that the missing length equals 7 centimeters.
This means that the box can have sides with the following dimensions: 3cm by 4cm; 7cm by 3cm; or 7cm by 4cm. The greatest area of one side belongs to the one that is 7cm by 4cm.
