Find the volume of the rectangular prism3/4 yd1 3/5 yd2/3 yd

Answer 1

4/5 cubic yards.

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the following formula:

`V=l\cdot w\cdot h`

We replace in this case:

`\begin{gathered} V=1(3)/(5)\cdot(2)/(3)\cdot(3)/(4)=(8)/(5)\cdot(2)/(3)\cdot(3)/(4) \\ V=(8\cdot2\cdot3)/(5\cdot3\cdot4)=(8\cdot2)/(5\cdot4)=(16)/(20) \\ V=(4)/(5)yd^3 \end{gathered}`

The volume of the rectangular prism is 4/5 cubic yards.
