Question

The dimensions of a rectangular prism are 2.5 feet by 3.5 feet by 4 feet. What is the volume of the rectangular prism in cubic feet? (1 point)
ft.³

Answer 1

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

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

For the given dimensions of the rectangular prism:

- Length = 2.5 feet
- Width = 3.5 feet
- Height = 4 feet

Now, plug in the values:

\[
\text{Volume} = 2.5 \, \text{ft} \times 3.5 \, \text{ft} \times 4 \, \text{ft}
\]

First, calculate \( 2.5 \times 3.5 \):

\[
2.5 \times 3.5 = 8.75
\]

Now, multiply that result by 4:

\[
8.75 \times 4 = 35
\]

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is

\[
\text{Volume} = 35 \, \text{ft}^3
\]

So, the final answer is:

\[
\boxed{35 \, \text{ft}^3}
\]
