Given:

Area of base of the prism, B = 96 square centimeters

Height of prism, H = 9 centimeters

Let's find the volume of the prism.

To find the volume of the prism, apply the formula below:


V=B\ast H

Where:

V is the volume in cubic units

B is the area of the base = 96 square centimeters

H is the height = 9 centimeters

Hence, we have:


\begin{gathered} V=96\ast9 \\ \\ V=864\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the volume of the prism is 864 cubic centimeters

ANSWER:


864\operatorname{cm}^3
