Question

How is the volume of the first rectangular prism with base 2m by 3m and height 5m related to the volume of the second rectangular prism with base 3m by 5m and height 2​m? Explain.

Answer 1

The volumes of the two rectangular prisms are the same.

Explanation:

For the first rectangular prism, the area of the base is 6 square meters, and the height is 5 meters, so the volume is 30 cubic meters.

For the second rectangular prism, the area of the base is 15 square meters, and the height is 2 meters, so the volume is 30 cubic meters, the same volume as the first rectangular prism.

Answer 2

they have the same volume

Explanation:

in order to find the volume of a rectangular prism you have to multiply the width,height and length.

2 × 3 × 5 = 30.since both prisms have the same numbers ,they have the same volume.

hope this helps :)
