Using the formula V=B×h , what is the volume of a rectangular prism with a width of 3 1/4 in., a length of 5 1/8 in., and a height of 7 3/8 in.? Your answer should be a mixed number in simplest form.(1 point)
in.3
To find the volume of the rectangular prism, we can substitute the values into the formula V = B x h.
Given:
Width = 3 1/4 in. = 13/4 in.
Length = 5 1/8 in. = 41/8 in.
Height = 7 3/8 in. = 59/8 in.
Now, calculate the volume:
V = (13/4) x (41/8) x (59/8)
V = (13 x 41 x 59) / (4 x 8 x 8)
V = 32267 / 256
V = 126.28125
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 126 cubic inches.
126 is wrong! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY!
My apologies for the mistake. Let's recalculate:
V = (13/4) x (41/8) x (59/8)
V = (13 x 41 x 59) / (4 x 8 x 8)
V = (33293) / 256
V = 4469/32
V = 139 21/32
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 139 21/32 cubic inches.
