Question

Lin has two small baking pans, each shaped like a rectangular prism. for each question, explain or show your reasoning. part b: 3pts lin’s second pan has a length of 8/3 inches, a width of 11/4 inches, and a height of 3/2 inches. what is the volume of the second pan?

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of Lin's second baking pan, multiply the length (8/3 inches), width (11/4 inches), and height (3/2 inches). The volume is found to be 11 inches³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lin's second baking pan has a volume calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height. We use the formula volume = length × width × height. Given the dimensions, 8/3 inches (length), 11/4 inches (width), and 3/2 inches (height), we calculate the volume as follows:

• First, convert the fractional measurements to decimals if necessary or directly multiply the fractions.
• Multiply the length (8/3 inches) by the width (11/4 inches).
• Then, multiply the result by the height (3/2 inches) to get the volume.

The calculated volume is (8/3) × (11/4) × (3/2) = 11 inches³.
