Given:

  • l= 14 inch
  • b= 3 inch
  • h= 8 inch

Note that:

  • l: length
  • b: breadth
  • h: height

To find:

  • The volume of the given rectangular prism/cuboid.

Solution:

  • A rectangular prism is a 3D shape with 2 congruent and parallel rectangular bases which is also known as a cuboid.


\large\boxed{Formula: V= lbh}

All the values are given so we'll simply have to solve.

Let's solve!

Substitute the values according to the formula.

We'll have to multiply the length, breadth and the height.


V= 14 * 3 * 8


\large\boxed{V= 336 \: {in}^(3)}

We get a whole number to the final answer so we won't have to round off.

Therefore, the volume of the given rectangular prism is 336 cubic inches.

Correct option: Option D

given:

height= 8 in

length= 14 in

width= 3 in

to find:

the volume of the given rectangular prism.

solution:


v = whl


v = 8 * 14 * 3


v = 336 \: {in}^(3)

hence, the volume of the given rectangular prism is 336 cubic inches.

answer= option D
