Answer: 6 units^3

Explanation:
using the volume of a rectangular prism formula:

L*W*H

We are already given the AREA which is the part L*W of the previous formula.

Now we multiply:

1 1/3 units * 4 1/2 units^2

Convert the fractions into 4/3 * 9/2 for an easier multiplication.

Resulting in 36/6 which is equivalent to 36 divided by 6.

Which gives us our answer of 6.
