To calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, we use the formula:

Volume = length x width x height

In this case, the length is 4 mm, the width is 7 mm, and the height is 5 mm. Plugging in these values:

Volume = 4 mm x 7 mm x 5 mm
Volume = 140 mm^3

Therefore, the space taken up by the rectangular prism is 140 cubic millimeters.
