Answer:
(a) 4 in²
Explanation:
The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula ...
V = Bh
where B is the area of the base, and h is the height of the prism.
We can find the area of the base by solving for B.
B = V/h
B = (12 in³)/(3 in)
B = 4 in² . . . . . . . . . . matches the first choice
