Answer:

l = 9 cm

b = 7 cm

h = 3 cm

Volume of cuboid = lbh

l - Length of cuboid

b - breadth of cuboid

h - Height of cuboid

To find the dimensions of prism

Here prism is like a cuboid.

Volume of prism = 189 cm^3

Height h = 3 cm

Volume = lbg

189 = l * b* 3

l * b = 189/3 = 63 = 9 * 7

Therefore l and b may be 9 and 7
