Another question. The floor of Raj's classroom has an area of 525 feet. The room is 12 feet high. What is the volume of Raj's classroom? I had got 6300. Is this correct? I had used the formula V = B x H.
Correct -- 6,300 cubic feet
Area 525 feet felling 12 ft what's the volume
Well, let me crunch some numbers here, or should I say juggle some numbers? The formula you used, V = B x H, is indeed the right one for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism like Raj's classroom. However, you forgot to mention the length and width of the floor. Without that, I'm afraid we can't solve the riddle of Raj's classroom volume. It's like trying to fit a clown car into a tester-size vehicle parking space – it just won't work! So, you may want to check if you have the complete information to solve the problem.
To find the volume of Raj's classroom, you indeed need to use the formula V = B x H, where V represents volume, B represents the area of the base, and H represents the height.
In this case, the area of the floor (B) is given as 525 square feet, and the height (H) is 12 feet. By substituting these values into the formula, you get:
V = 525 ft^2 x 12 ft
V = 6300 cubic feet
So, your calculation of 6300 cubic feet is correct. The volume of Raj's classroom is indeed 6300 cubic feet. Well done!
