What is the volume of the right rectangular prism packed with 8 cubes? Each cube has an edge length of 1/5 centimeter.
First, we need to find the volume of one cube. The formula for the volume of a cube is side length cubed. Since each cube has an edge length of 1/5 centimeter, the volume of one cube is (1/5)^3 = 1/125 cubic centimeters.
Since there are 8 cubes, the total volume of the 8 cubes is 8 * (1/125) = 8/125 cubic centimeters.
Now, let's find the volume of the right rectangular prism. We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is length * width * height. Since the edge length of each cube is 1/5 centimeter, the dimensions of the right rectangular prism will be 2/5, 2/5, and 2/5.
So, the volume of the right rectangular prism is (2/5) * (2/5) * (2/5) = 8/125 cubic centimeters.
Therefore, the volume of the right rectangular prism packed with 8 cubes is 8/125 cubic centimeters.
