To find the volume of the right rectangular prism using the cube method, count the number of cubes that fit inside the prism.
From the image, we see that the prism is made up of 6 levels of cubes, and each level has 5 cubes. This gives us a total of 6 x 5 = 30 cubes.
Each cube has a volume of (1/3)^3 = 1/27 cubic inches.
Therefore, the total volume of the prism is 30 x 1/27 = 30/27 = 10/9 cubic inches.
So, the volume of the prism is 10/9 cubic inches.
