Answer:
90cm^3

Explanation:

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional solid.

A rectangular prism has six faces (each one of these faces are rectangles), eight vertices and twelve edges.

You know that this rectangular prism has 5 layers and the volume of one of these layers is 18 cubic centimeters (
18cm^3).

Assuming that all these layers are equal, the volume of this rectangular prism can be calculated with:


V_(prism)=5*V_1

Where
V_1 is the volume of one layer.

Substituting, you get:


V_(prism)=(5)(18cm^3)\\\\V_(prism)=90cm^3
