Answer: 84 cm³

Explanation: To find the volume of a rectangular prism or a prism or a prism whose base is a rectangle, we use the following formula.

Volume = length × width × height

Since the rectangular prism has a length of 14 cm, a width of 2 cm, and a height of 3cm, we cna plug this information into the formula to get

(14 cm)(2 cm)(3 cm).

(14)(2) is 28 and (28)(3) is 84 and notice that we have

centimeters × centimeters × centimeters or cm³.

So the volume of the given rectangular prism is 84 cm³.
