The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height together.
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Given that the length is 5 1/2 ft, width is 2 1/2 ft, and height is 2 1/4 ft:
Volume = 5 1/2 ft x 2 1/2 ft x 2 1/4 ft
Volume = 55/10 x 5/2 x 9/4
Volume = 495/40
Volume = 124/10
Volume = 12 4/10 ft
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 12 4/10 cubic feet which can also be simplified to 30 15/16 cubic feet.
Therefore, the answer is 30 15/16 cubic feet.
