Answer:

A prism that has a length of 2, height of 1 and one-half, and width of 2.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the area of a prism is base area × height

Volume = L×W×H

L is the length of the prism

W is the width

H is the height.

To determine the prism that has an area of 6 cubic units, we will substitute the values in the option in the formula.

Using option D i.e prism that has a length of 2, height of 1 and one-half, and width of 2.

L = 2units, H = 1 1/2 units , W = 2units

Substituting in the formula for finding the volume

V = 2×2×3/2

Volume of the prism = 6cubic units
