What shape has the largest volume?

Answer 1

A square.

Think of a square and rectangle, a square can have L:4 W:4

A rectangle can have a L:8 W:2, area wise these 2 are equal at 16.

When you find the perimeter, the rectangle adds up to 20 while the square is only 16.

When you make the perimeter equal which is making the square sides equal to 5, that would make the area of the square increase to 25 now instead of 16.

When you add a height to it, lets say 5, the volume would increase to 125 while the rectangle with equal perimeter and same height would only equal only 80. You can compare this with any other shape.

Answer 2

The sphere or circle is the best. This allows it to touch the most surface area for how big it is.

Answer 3

The Universe has the largest volume.

Answer 4

A sphere has the largest volume for a given surface area. This is known as the isoperimetric inequality.

Answer 5

A cube.
