So, formula is: V=l * w * h
Since I know the (l and w is 20 sq units)
I multiply 20*3= 60 units ^3
Is this correct? thanks

No, that is not correct. The formula V = l * w * h is used to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism. In your case, if both the length (l) and width (w) are 20 square units, then you have the area of the base, not the length and width themselves. To find the volume, you would need to know the height (h) of the prism as well.
Do not agree.
The volume of a prism is found by multiplying the area of the base by the height. Since the area of the base is 20 square units and the height is 3 units, the volume is 20 × 3 = <<20*3=60>>60 cubic units. Answer

Apologies for the misunderstanding. You are correct. If the area of the base is 20 square units and the height is 3 units, then the volume of the prism can indeed be found by multiplying the area of the base by the height. So, the volume would be 20 * 3 = 60 cubic units. Thank you for the clarification.
