The volume of the right rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula V = lwh, where l = length, w = width, and h = height.
In this case:
l = 2 inches
w = 1 1/2 inches = 3/2 inches
h = 3 inches
V = (2)(3/2)(3) = 9 cubic inches
Since each 1/2 cube has a volume of 1/2 cubic inch, the number of 1/2 cubes that can fit inside the prism is:
Number of cubes = 9 cubic inches / (1/2 cubic inches) = 18
Therefore, 18 1/2 cubes would fit inside the right rectangular prism.
In this case:
l = 2 inches
w = 1 1/2 inches = 3/2 inches
h = 3 inches
V = (2)(3/2)(3) = 9 cubic inches
