To find the volume of a square prism using the formula \( V = s^2 h \), where \( s \) is the length of each side of the square base and \( h \) is the height of the prism, we will substitute the given values.

Given:

  • \( s = 4 \)
  • \( h = 6 \)

Now, we can calculate the volume:

\[ V = s^2 h = 4^2 \times 6 \]

Calculating \( 4^2 \):

\[ 4^2 = 16 \]

Now substituting back into the formula:

\[ V = 16 \times 6 = 96 \]

The volume of the square prism is 96 cubic centimeters.
