Answer:

It's 5/36

Explanation:

I say this because 6 times 2 times 3 is 36.

You just multiply the bottom or length times width times height.

So it's the first one.

Answer:

5/36 yd³

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangular prism is height × length × width

So you would do 1/3×5/6×1/2

5/18*1/2= 5/36

Hope this helps!!!
