Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of a prism, we multiply the base area by the height.
The base area is shown in green as 7 1/3 square units.
This multiplies with the height 2 to get
2*(7 1/3) = 2*(7 + 1/3) = 2*(7) + 2*(1/3) = 14 + 2/3 = 14 2/3
As alternative notation, you can write 14 2/3 as 14 & 2/3.
Or you could write
. Keep in mind that this does not mean 14 times 2/3.
