A cereal box has a height of 10 1/4 in., a length of 6 1/4 in., and a width of 1 1/2 in. What is the volume of the cereal box? Your answer should be a mixed number in simplest form.(1 point)

The formula to find the volume of a rectangular prism is V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given:
Length (l) = 6 1/4 in. = 6.25 in.
Width (w) = 1 1/2 in. = 1.5 in.
Height (h) = 10 1/4 in. = 10.25 in.
Volume (V) = (6.25)(1.5)(10.25)
V = 95.15625 in^3
Since we want the answer in a mixed number in simplest form, we can simplify the decimal:
V = 95 39/64 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the cereal box is 95 39/64 in^3.
