Using the formula V=B×h , what is the volume of a rectangular prism with a width of 3 1/4 in., a length of 5 1/8 in., and a height of 7 3/8 in.? Your answer should be a mixed number in simplest form.
Answers:
1. 122 215/256
2. 552 1/2
3. 26 15/32
4. 96 3/32
5. 476 7/16
Doing this because I barely see any answers on these kind of questions hope this helps :)
The volume of the rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula V = B x h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height.
First, we need to find the area of the base (B) by multiplying the width by the length:
B = (3 1/4) x (5 1/8)
B = 13/4 x 41/8
B = 533/32
B = 16 21/32
Now, we can find the volume by multiplying the base area by the height:
V = (16 21/32) x (7 3/8)
V = 533/32 x 59/8
V = 31347/256
V = 122 19/256
The volume of the rectangular prism is 122 19/256 cubic inches.
incorrecto
I apologize for the mistake. Let's try again:
Given:
Width = 3 1/4 = 13/4 in
Length = 5 1/8 = 41/8 in
Height = 7 3/8 = 59/8 in
To find the volume, we need to multiply the area of the base (width x length) by the height:
Base area (B) = (13/4) x (41/8) = 533/32 = 16 21/32
Volume (V) = 16 21/32 x 59/8
V = (533/32) x (59/8)
V = 31347/256
V = 122 19/256
Therefore, the correct volume of the rectangular prism is 122 19/256 cubic inches. Thank you for pointing out the error, and sorry for any confusion.
wrong
I apologize for the mistakes in my previous responses. Let's correct it:
Given:
Width = 3 1/4 in = 13/4 in
Length = 5 1/8 in = 41/8 in
Height = 7 3/8 in = 59/8 in
To find the volume, we need to multiply the base area (length x width) by the height:
Base area (B) = (13/4) * (41/8) = 533/32 = 16 21/32
Volume (V) = 16 21/32 * 59/8
V = (533/32) * (59/8)
V = 31347/256
V = 122 91/256
Therefore, the correct volume of the rectangular prism is 122 91/256 cubic inches. Thank you for your patience.
