Hi, I don't really know if this is correct but oh well.

Answer:

11 5/6

Step-By-Step Explaination:

V = l·w·h

3 1/2·7.5 = 5 1/4

5 1/4 · 3 = 15 3/4

15 3/4 · 7.5 = 11 5/6

Hope this helped. :)

(just noticed this it wrong sorry)

Well, since there is no image I am unable to say the exact volume. But here is the volume formula-
V=L times W times H
*V=volume W=width H=height
and you don't actually have to write times you can do the symbol.

Example- if I had a rectangular prism of the width being 5 cubes, the length 8 cubes, and the height 7 cubes(following how many gallons are in a cube 7.5) I would the use my formula. V=LWH- 8 times 7= 56 56 times 5=280 280 times 7.5= 2100
V=2100 (that is your answer reply If you didn't mean the volume or you don't get it)
