Question

The area of the base of a rectangular prism is 36 cm2. The height of the prism is 3 5 6 cm. What is the volume of the prism?

Answer 1

138 cm³

Explanation:

Given in the question that base of the rectangular prism = 36 cm²

Height of the prism = 3 5/6 cm = 23/6

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism with base area B and height H is given by

Volume = B(H)

Plug values in the formula above to find the volume of the prism

Volume = 36(23/6)

= 6(23)

= 138 cm³

So the volume of prism = 138 cm³
