Cube method:
The length, width, and height represent the dimensions of the prism in terms of cubes. So, the volume can be found by multiplying the three dimensions together:
Volume = (1/2 cm) * (3/2 cm) * (2 cm) = 3/4 cm³
Formula method:
The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism is V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Plugging in the values given:
Volume = (1/2 cm) * (3/2 cm) * (2 cm) = 3/4 cm³
Therefore, Anna should get an answer of 3/4 cm³ for the volume of the prism using both methods.
Anna finds the volume of a right rectangular prism with length of 1/2 cn,width is 1 1/2 cm and height of 2 cm using the cube method. Find the volume of the prism using formula method. What answer should ana get ? Provide your answer as an improper fraction reduced to lowest term
