✔ 3

quarter-cubic units fit inside the prism.

The total volume of the prism is

✔ 9 3/4 units3.

Answer 2

9 3/4 cubic units

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism =

Length × Width × Height

From the question:

Length = 3 units

Height = 3 1/4 units

Width = 1 unit.

Volume of the prism =

3 units × 3 1/4 units × 1 unit

= (3 × 13/4 × 1 )cubic units

= 39/4 cubic units

= 9 3/4 cubic units

The total volume of the rectangular prism = 9 3/4 cubic units
