To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you multiply the length, width, and height.
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = (4 2/3) ft. x (3 1/3) ft. x (2 1/2) ft.
First, convert all mixed numbers to improper fractions:
4 2/3 = 14/3 ft.
3 1/3 = 10/3 ft.
2 1/2 = 5/2 ft.
Volume = (14/3) ft. x (10/3) ft. x (5/2) ft.
Volume = (140/9) ft. x (5/2) ft.
Volume = 700/18 ft^3
Volume = 38 8/9 ft^3
So, the volume of the rectangular prism is 38 8/9 ft^3.
