EXPLANATION
The first figure is a triangular prism, so the equation that applies to find the volume is
![Volume=(1)/(2)\text{bhl}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/el9vaumef3nxvdxm4kcdeglxc0uveo2q81.png)
In this case, b=3 inches L= 6 2/3 inches = 20/3 inches h= 4 1/3 inches = 13/3 inches.
Replacing terms:
![\text{Volume}=(1)/(2)\cdot3\cdot(13)/(3)\cdot(20)/(3)](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/b7o0v9g2vfh7ejujnt3bq1gkq3dszncju1.png)
Multiplying the fractions:
![\text{Volume}=(130)/(3)=43.3in^3](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/a04fnhzew9kqtmnjeou2fj443cvby496ll.png)
The answer is the OPTION B: 43.3 inches^3
