Answer 1

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

\[ \text{Volume} = \text{Area of base} \times \text{Height} \]

From your provided dimensions, it looks like the base area is given as \(15 , \text{in}^2\) and the height is \(8 , \text{in}\).

Now, we can plug in the values:

\[ \text{Volume} = 15 , \text{in}^2 \times 8 , \text{in} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Volume} = 120 , \text{in}^3 \]

So, the volume of the rectangular prism is \(120 , \text{in}^3\).
