Answer:

The volume of the rectangular prism is
$8(1)/(2)\ units^(3)$

Explanation:

we know that

The Volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

V=BL

where

B is the area of the base

L is the length of the prism

In this problem we have

$B=2(1)/(8)\ units^(2)=(8*2+1)/(8)=(17)/(8)\ units^(2)$

$L=4\ units$

substitute

$V=((17)/(8))(4)=(17)/(2)=8(1)/(2)\ units^(3)$
