applyin the formula v=b x h, what is the volume of the formula of a rectangular prism with length of 11 1/5in., a width of 9 1/2.,and a height 8 1/2
To find the volume of a rectangular prism using the formula V = b x h, where b is the base area and h is the height, we must first find the base area of the prism.
Given:
Length = 11 1/5 in = 11.2 in
Width = 9 1/2 in = 9.5 in
Height = 8 1/2 in = 8.5 in
Base area (b) = Length x Width
Base area (b) = 11.2 in x 9.5 in
Base area (b) = 106.4 in²
Now, we can find the volume using the formula V = b x h
Volume (V) = Base area x Height
Volume (V) = 106.4 in² x 8.5 in
Volume (V) = 903.4 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 903.4 cubic inches.
