Answer 1

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you can use the formula V = lwh where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

Given:
Length (l) = 1/3 m
Width (w) = 1/4 m
Height (h) = 2 1/2 = 5/2 m

Plug in these values into the formula:
V = (1/3)(1/4)(5/2)
V = 5/24 cubic meters

Therefore, the volume of the prism is 5/24 cubic meters.
