Question

A box in the shape of a right rectangular prism has a length of 8.5 inches, a width of 4.5 inches, and a height of 3.75 inches. What is the volume, in cubic inches, of the box?

Answer 1

V = 143.4375 cubic inches

Explanation:

Volume is the measurement of the amount a 3D object can hold. Each 3D object has 3 measurements: length, width, and height.. This object is a rectangular prism. Its volume is found as V = l*w*h. Substitute h = 3.75, l = 8.5, and w = 4.5. Then simplify for the volume.

V = l*w*h

V = 8.5*4.5*3.75

V = 143.4375 cubic inches
