using the formula v=bxh,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 3/6 in.? your answer should a mixed number in simplest form
To find the volume of the rectangular prism, we use the formula V = l x w x h, where l = length, w = width, and h = height.
Given:
Width = 3 1/4 in. = 13/4 in.
Length = 5 1/8 in. = 41/8 in.
Height = 7 3/6 in. = 45/6 in.
V = (41/8) x (13/4) x (45/6)
V = 41 x 13 x 45 / 8 x 4 x 6
V = 22845 / 192
V = 119/2
V = 59 1/2
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism with the given dimensions is 59 1/2 cubic inches.
