What is the volume of the rectangular prism?

Question

The rectangular prism is composed of unit cubes. The prism is 4 unit cubes high, 2 unit cubes wide, and 4 unit cubes long. A key shows that one unit cube equals 1 cubic inch.

Answer 1

To find the volume of the rectangular prism, we need to find the number of unit cubes inside it.

Since the prism is 4 unit cubes high, 2 unit cubes wide, and 4 unit cubes long, the total number of unit cubes is 4 * 2 * 4 = 32 unit cubes.

As given in the question, one unit cube equals 1 cubic inch.

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 32 * 1 = <<32*1=32>>32 cubic inches.
