Question

What is the volume of the right rectangular prism.Enter your answer as a decimal to the nearest hundredths place

Answer 1

The volume of the right rectangular prism is equal to the area base times the height of the prism. The area base (A) is given by

`\begin{gathered} A=length* width \\ A=6.1*5.4 \\ A=32.94cm^2 \end{gathered}`

Then, the volume (V) is given as

`\begin{gathered} V=Base\text{ area}* height \\ V=32.94*8 \\ V=263.52cm^3 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, by rounding to the nearest hundreath, the answer is 263.52 cubic centimeters.
