1 answer

To find the volume of the rectangular cereal box, we use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism, which is:

Volume = length x width x height

Given:
Height = 3/4 ft
Length = 1/2 ft
Width = 1/2 ft

Plugging the values into the formula:

Volume = (1/2) x (1/2) x (3/4)
Volume = 3/16 ft^3

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular cereal box is 3/16 ft^3.

Therefore, the correct option is 3/16 ft^3.
