When you apply the volume formula, what is the volume of a moving box in the shape of a rectangular prism with a length of 2 1/4 ft., a width of 1 1/2 ft., and a height of 3/4 ft.? The answer will be a mixed fraction in cubic feett
To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you multiply the length, width, and height together.
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = (2 1/4) x (1 1/2) x (3/4)
Volume = (9/4) x (3/2) x (3/4)
Volume = (27/8) ft^3
Convert improper fraction to mixed fraction:
Volume = 3 3/8 ft^3
Therefore, the volume of the moving box is 3 3/8 cubic feet.
