Find the volume of a rectangular prism (a box) that is
19
19 feet long,
4
4 feet wide and has a height of
8
8 feet.
To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you multiply the length, width, and height together.
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 19 ft x 4 ft x 8 ft
Volume = 608 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 608 cubic feet.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the circular base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given that the cylinder has a height of 18 feet and a diameter of 6 feet (which means the radius is half of the diameter, so r = 6/2 = 3 feet), we can calculate the volume as follows:
V = π * (3)^2 * 18
V = π * 9 * 18
V = π * 162
V = 507.96 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 507.96 cubic feet.
