To find volume of a rectangular prism, you simply need to multiply length times width times height. We know from the text that our block of ice is 3 meters long, 1.5 meters wide, and 2 meters high. So all we need to do is multiply:

3 * 1.5 = 4.5

4.5 * 2 = 9

The block of ice has a volume of 9 cubic meters.
Choice C is your correct answer.
Hope that helped! =)
