Question

A right rectangular prism is 5 and 1/4 inches wide 12 and 1/2 inches long and 4 inches tall what is the volume of the prism

Answer 1

29 in ^3

Explanation:

6 sides

2 of which are smaller than the other 4.

12 x 1/2 x 4 = 4 longer sides

5 x 1/4 x 4 = 2 shorter sides

12 x 1/2 = 6

6 x 4 = 24

5 x 1/4 = 1.25

1.25 x 4 = 5

5 + 24 = 29

29 in ^3
