B)432(cm^3)

Step-by-step explanation

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply its 3 dimensions: length x width x height. The volume is expressed in cubic units.


\text{Volume}=\text{length}\cdot\text{width}\cdot\text{height}

Step 1

Let


\begin{gathered} \text{length}=8\text{ cm} \\ heigth=9\text{ cm} \\ width=6\text{ cm} \end{gathered}

Now,replace


\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=\text{length}\cdot\text{width}\cdot\text{height} \\ V=8\text{ cm}\cdot6\text{ cm}\cdot9\text{ cm} \\ V=432(cm^3) \end{gathered}

so, the answer is


B)432(cm^3)

I hope this helps you
