4/25 cubic inches
5/5=1 cubic inches
4/125 cubic inches
4/5 cubic inches
Cube method:
Volume of one cube = (15)^3 = 3375 cubic inches
Volume of 4 cubes = 4 * 3375 = 13500 cubic inches
Reduced to lowest terms, the volume of the right rectangular prism is 13500 cubic inches.
Formula method:
Volume of a right rectangular prism = Length * Width * Height
Since all sides of the cubes are equal (15 inches), the volume can be calculated as:
Volume = 15 * 15 * 15 = 3375 cubic inches
Since there are 4 cubes, the total volume is 4 * 3375 = 13500 cubic inches
Reduced to lowest terms, the volume of the right rectangular prism is 13500 cubic inches.
