What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 4 2/3 ft., a height of 3 1/3 ft., and a width of 2 1/2 ft.?(1 point)

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, you multiply the length, height, and width together.

Volume = length x height x width
Volume = (4 2/3) ft. x (3 1/3) ft. x (2 1/2) ft.

First, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
4 2/3 = 14/3
3 1/3 = 10/3
2 1/2 = 5/2

Now calculate the volume:
Volume = (14/3) ft. x (10/3) ft. x (5/2) ft.
Volume = (140/9) ft. x (5/2) ft.
Volume = (700/18) ft.
Volume = 38 14/18 ft.
Volume = 38 7/9 ft.

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 38 7/9 cubic feet.
