To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]
For a rectangular prism, the base area is calculated by multiplying the length and width of the base. However, from your question, it seems that you provided the base (length) but not the width.
Assuming you are referring to a rectangular base with a length of 21 cm and a width (not given), let's denote the width as \( w \).
Therefore, the base area can be expressed as:
\[
\text{Base Area} = 21 \, \text{cm} \times w \, \text{cm}
\]
Thus, the volume formula becomes:
\[
\text{Volume} = (21 \times w) \times 3
\]
\[
\text{Volume} = 63w
\]
To get a specific volume, you need to know the width \( w \). If you have that information, you can substitute it into the formula to find the volume of the prism. If the width is not provided, we cannot calculate a specific volume without that value.
