We don't know what the dimensions are, but any numbers that have a sum of 120 will work. Let's use 3, 4, and 10.

3 x 4 = 12   10 x 12 = 120

But if you double each dimension:

6 x 8 = 48     48 x 20 = 960         To find how much the sums changed:

960 / 120 = 8     

The new volume is 8 times what it originally was! 960 in.
