The volume formula for a rectangular prism is V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Plugging in the given values:
V = (2½ ft.) * (1½ ft.) * (½ ft.)
V = (5/2 ft.) * (3/2 ft.) * (1/2 ft.)
V = (15/4 ft.) * (1/2 ft.)
V = 15/8 ft.
Therefore, the volume of the moving box is 15/8 cubic feet.
When you apply the volume formula, what is the volume of a moving box in the shape
of a rectangular prism with a length of 2½ ½ ft., a width of 1½ ½ ft., and a height of ft.?
The answer will be a mixed fraction in cubic feet. (1 point)
