(Please choose ONE answer choice)

A. 12 cubic inches

B. 5 cubic inches

C. 1/8 cubic inches

D. 3/2 cubic inches

A. 12 cubic inches

To find the total volume of the rectangular prism packed with cubes, we first find the volume of one cube: (1/2 inch)^3 = 1/8 cubic inches.
Then, since there are 12 cubes, the total volume is 12 * (1/8 cubic inches) = 12 cubic inches.
