The base of a prisim is a rectangle. the length of the rectangle is 4 7/8 inches and the width of the rectangle is 5 inches. the height of the prisim is 12 1/2 inches. whitch calculation gives the volume of the prisim
To calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, you need to multiply the length, width, and height of the prism.
Volume = length x width x height
In this case, the length is 4 7/8 inches, the width is 5 inches, and the height is 12 1/2 inches.
4 7/8 inches = 4 + 7/8 = 39/8 inches
12 1/2 inches = 12 + 1/2 = 25/2 inches
So, the calculation to find the volume of the prism is:
Volume = (39/8) x 5 x (25/2) = 39/8 * 5 * 25/2
Volume = 195/8 * 25/2
Volume = 4875/16 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the prism is 4875/16 cubic inches.
