Formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: V = lwh
Given:
length (l) = 1/2 cm
width (w) = 3/2 cm
height (h) = 2 cm
Using the formula method:
V = (1/2)(3/2)(2)
V = 3/2 cm^3
V = 1 1/2 cm^3
Therefore, Ana should get a volume of 1 1/2 cm^3 using the formula method.
Ana finds the volume of a right rectangular prism with length ½ ½ cm, width 1½ cm, and
height 2 cm using the cube method. Find the volume of the prism using the formula
method. What answer should Ana get? Provide your answer as an improper fraction
reduced to the lowest terms. (1 point)
