Volume of a Prism Formula: V = lwh

• l is length
• w is width
• h is height

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

l = 13.8 cm

w = 4.5 cm

h = 5 cm

Step 2: Solve for V

1. Substitute in variables [Volume of a Prism Formula]: V = (13.8 cm)(4.5 cm)(5 cm)
2. Multiply: V = (62.1 cm²)(5 cm)
3. Multiply: V = 310.5 cm³
