length of cubes: 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 6
width of cubes: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1
height of cubes: 12, 3, 1, 1, 1,
Part a: higher order thinking complete the table. show some different wahs that a rectangular prism can have. a volume of 12 cubic units
Part B: look for relationships look across earch row of the table. what pattern do you see
Part A:
Volume: 12 cubic units
Possible dimensions for a rectangular prism with a volume of 12 cubic units:
1. Length = 1, Width = 1, Height = 12
2. Length = 2, Width = 2, Height = 3
3. Length = 2, Width = 3, Height = 2
4. Length = 3, Width = 2, Height = 2
5. Length = 4, Width = 3, Height = 1
6. Length = 6, Width = 1, Height = 2
Part B:
Pattern across each row:
- The volume of the rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height.
- The volume for each row is 12 cubic units.
- The dimensions vary but when multiplied together result in the same volume.
