Question

Find the volume of right rectangular prism made of one hundred 1/2 cubic inches blocks. 50 cubic inches 25 cubic inches M 12.5 cubic inches 37.5 cubic inches

Answer 1

12.5 cubic inches

Explanation:

The first thing to do is calculate the volume of each half-inch block. We calculate this volume by means of the following formula:

`\begin{gathered} V_b=((1)/(2))^3 \\ V_b=0.125in^3 \end{gathered}`

Then we multiply this volume by the number of blocks there are, just like this:

`\begin{gathered} V=100\cdot0.125 \\ V=12.5 \end{gathered}`

The volume of the prism would be 12.5 cubic inches.
