What is the volume of a right rectangular prism with a length of 12, width of 5, and height of

3 answers

To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height} \]

Given the length \( l = 12 \) and width \( w = 5 \), we still need the height \( h \) to calculate the volume.

If you provide the height, you can substitute all the values into the formula. For example, if the height were \( h \), the volume would be calculated as:

\[ \text{Volume} = 12 \times 5 \times h \]

Please provide the height, and I can help you find the volume!

the height is 10

Great! Now that we have the height, we can calculate the volume of the right rectangular prism.

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height} \]

Substituting in the values:

  • Length \( l = 12 \)
  • Width \( w = 5 \)
  • Height \( h = 10 \)

\[ \text{Volume} = 12 \times 5 \times 10 \]

Now, calculating this:

\[ \text{Volume} = 12 \times 5 = 60 \] \[ \text{Volume} = 60 \times 10 = 600 \]

Thus, the volume of the right rectangular prism is \( 600 \) cubic units.
