Answer:
To find the volume of a prism, we need to multiply the area of the base (in this case, a rectangle) by its height.
Given:
Length (L) = 6 cm
Width (W) = 2 cm
Area (A) = 17 cm²
Height (H) = 8 cm
The area of the base (A) = Length × Width
A = 6 cm × 2 cm
A = 12 cm²
Now, we have the area of the base and the height. To find the volume (V), we use the formula:
V = Area × Height
V = 12 cm² × 8 cm
V = 96 cm³
The volume of the prism is 96 cm³.
