Using the formula V = B × h, what is the volume of a rectangular prism with a

Question

width of 3½ in., a length of 5½-½ in., and a height of 7¾ in.? Your answer should be a
mixed number in simplest form. (1 point)

Answer 1

First, we need to find the area of the base (B) of the rectangular prism:
B = length × width
B = (5½ - ½) in. × 3½ in.
B = 5 in. × 3½ in.
B = 17½ in²

Now, we can find the volume (V) of the rectangular prism:
V = B × h
V = 17½ in² × 7¾ in.
V = 136 1/4 in³

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 136 1/4 in³ or 136.25 in³.
