The image shows 3 cubes as the length, 2 cubes as the height, and 1 cube as the width.
Find the volume of the right rectangular prism packed with cubes. Each cube has an edge length of inch. Enter the answer in a fraction and do not reduce
The volume of a right rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height.
Given:
Length = 3 cubes = 3 inches
Height = 2 cubes = 2 inches
Width = 1 cube = 1 inch
Edge length of one cube = 1 inch
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 3 inches x 1 inch x 2 inches
Volume = 3 x 1 x 2 = 6 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the right rectangular prism packed with cubes is 6/1 cubic inches.
No, the edge length is 1/3 inch
Apologies for the oversight. Let's recalculate the volume using an edge length of 1/3 inch for each cube.
Given:
Length = 3 cubes = 3 * 1/3 = 1 inch
Height = 2 cubes = 2 * 1/3 = 2/3 inch
Width = 1 cube = 1 * 1/3 = 1/3 inch
Edge length of one cube = 1/3 inch
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 1 inch x 1/3 inch x 2/3 inch
Volume = 1/1 x 1/3 x 2/3 = 2/9 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the right rectangular prism packed with cubes is 2/9 cubic inches.
