How many 1/2 -inch cubes would fit inside a right rectangular prism with a length of 2 inches, a width of 1 1/2 inches, and a height of 3 inches? (fractions)
Since the dimensions are given in fractions and the cubes are 1/2 inch each, we need to convert the dimensions into halves.
Length: 2 inches = 4 halves
Width: 1 1/2 inches = 3 halves
Height: 3 inches = 6 halves
To find the volume of the right rectangular prism, we multiply the dimensions together:
4 halves * 3 halves * 6 halves = 72 halves
Therefore, 72 1/2-inch cubes would fit inside the right rectangular prism.
