Question

A box in the shape of a rectangular prism has the length of 3 5/8 inches, a width of 2 1/2 inches and a height of 4 inches. What is the volume of the box?

Answer 1

36 1/4 in^3 : 36.25 in ^3

Explanation:

Turn all fractions into decimal form:

3 5/8 in = 3.625

2 1/2 = 2.5

4 = 4

Volume formula = lwh

l = 3.625 in

w = 2.5 in

h = 4 in

V = 3.625 * 2.5 * 4

V = 9.0625 * 4

V = 36.25
