Question

The volume of this rectangular prism is 6 cubic inches.

A) Length = 1 in, Width = 2 in, Height = 3 in
B) Length = 2 in, Width = 3 in, Height = 1 in
C) Length = 3 in, Width = 1 in, Height = 2 in
D) Length = 1 in, Width = 3 in, Height = 2 in

Answer 1

To determine the correct option for a rectangular prism with a volume of 6 cubic inches, we can calculate the volume for each option and compare it. Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height. In this case, we are given four options: A, B, C, and D. To determine the correct option, we can calculate the volume for each option and compare it with the given volume of 6 cubic inches:

• Option A: Length = 1 in, Width = 2 in, Height = 3 in. Volume = 1 in x 2 in x 3 in = 6 cubic inches. So, Option A is correct.
• Option B: Length = 2 in, Width = 3 in, Height = 1 in. Volume = 2 in x 3 in x 1 in = 6 cubic inches.
• Option C: Length = 3 in, Width = 1 in, Height = 2 in. Volume = 3 in x 1 in x 2 in = 6 cubic inches.
• Option D: Length = 1 in, Width = 3 in, Height = 2 in. Volume = 1 in x 3 in x 2 in = 6 cubic inches.
