Consider the two figures. Which statement is true?

• The volume of Figure 1 is greater than the volume of Figure 2 because 1 × 4 × 2 is greater than 2 × 3 × 1.

• The volume of Figure 1 is less than the volume of Figure 2 because 1 × 4 × 2 is less than 2 × 3 × 2.

• The volume of Figure 2 is greater than the volume of Figure 1 because 2 × 3 × 1 is greater than

  4 × 1 × 3.

• The volume of Figure 2 is the same as the volume of Figure 1 because 2 × 3 × 2 is the same as 1 × 4 × 3.
