To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we use the formula V = B * h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height.
First, we need to find the area of the base (B) of the rectangular prism. The base is a rectangle, so we can multiply the length and width to find the area:
Length = 6 1/8 ft = 49/8 ft
Width = 7 1/4 ft = 29/4 ft
B = (49/8 ft) * (29/4 ft)
B = 1421/32 ft
Now, we can find the volume by multiplying the base area by the height:
V = (1421/32 ft) * (3 2/5 ft)
V = (1421/32 ft) * (17/5 ft)
V = 150 157/160 ft
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 150 157/160 ft. So, the closest answer choice is 150 157/160 ft.
