The volume of the rectangular lunch box is the amount of space in it

The volume in terms of W is LW^2 = 443.75

How to determine the volume expression?

The volume is given as:

V = 355

Let the width of the box be W, and the height be H; such that:

W = 1.25H

Make H the subject

H = W/1.25

The volume is calculated as:

V = LWH

So, we have:

355 = L * W * W/1.25

Multiply through by 1.25

443.75 = L * W * W

This gives

443.75 = LW^2

Rewrite as:

LW^2 = 443.75

The diagram is not given. So, the question cannot be solved further

Hence, the volume in terms of W is LW^2 = 443.75
