Question

fidn the volume of the prsim below with measurements of 6 ft 2.5 ft and 3.5 ft

Answer 1

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

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

The measurements given are 6 ft, 2.5 ft, and 3.5 ft. However, we need to determine which measurements correspond to the base dimensions and which corresponds to the height.

Assuming that:

- The base dimensions are 6 ft and 2.5 ft
- The height of the prism is 3.5 ft

First, calculate the base area:

\[
\text{Base Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width} = 6 \text{ ft} \times 2.5 \text{ ft} = 15 \text{ ft}^2
\]

Next, calculate the volume of the prism:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} = 15 \text{ ft}^2 \times 3.5 \text{ ft} = 52.5 \text{ ft}^3
\]

Therefore, the volume of the prism is \( 52.5 \, \text{ft}^3 \).
