Answer 1

16.25

Explanation:

Answer 2

we know that

[volume of a prism]=length*width*height
length=1 1/4 cm-------> (1*4+1)/4-------> 5/4 cm
width = 4 cm
height=3 1/4 cm---------> (3*4+1)/4------> 13/4 cm
[volume of a prism]=(5/4)*4*13/4-----------> 65/4--------> 16.25 cm³

the answer is
the volume is 16.25 cm³ (16 1/4 cm³)
