The volume of the rectangular prism can be calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the prism.
Length: 3 cubes
Width: 2 cubes
Height: 2 cubes
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 3 x 2 x 2 = 12
Since each cube has an edge length of 1/3 inch, the volume of each cube is (1/3) x (1/3) x (1/3) = 1/27 cubic inches.
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism packed with cubes is 12 x 1/27 = 12/27 = 4/9 cubic inches.
Use the image to answer the question.
A rectangular prism made of cubes placed as 3 columns of 2 cubes high each.
