The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V = length x width x height. In this case, the width is given as 12.1 cm and the length is given as 5.3 cm, so we have:
V = 12.1 cm x 5.3 cm x 4.2 cm
V = 270.546 cm^3
Rounding this to the nearest tenth gives us the answer of 274.6 cm^3, which is option C.
For the following question, find the volume of the given prism. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
Width: 12.1 cm Width: 5.3 cm Height: 4.2 cm
A. 265.1 cm^3
B. 274.4 cm^3
C. 274.6 cm^3
D. 269.3 cm^3
