F. P=4xs
G. A=sxs
H. V=sxsxs
J. A=lxw
F?
Jayne had a trunk that is shaped like a rectangular prism. What formula can Jayne use to find the number of cubic feet in her trunk?
Length=3
Width=2
Height=1

C. V=lxwxh
D. V=sxsxs
C?
The carpenter building Bradley's new house allowed Bradly to help figure the amount of baseboard needed to go around the walls of the dining room. What did they need to know to determinate the amount of baseboard needed? The baseboard is a rectangular prism
F. Are
G. Perimeter
H. Volume
J. Circumference
G?
Your first answer is wrong; the others are correct.
No.
It's not D cause it's estimating and we're talking about area so it's B?
Yes, B. is correct. Do you see why?
I think I do cause area is finding how much of the space you used on something. So you're trying to find in B how much paper can go into the bulletin board
Yay! You've got it!
Thank you
You're welcome.
For the first question, which of the following would require finding the area, the answer is B. Determining the amount of paper needed to cover a bulletin board. To find the amount of paper needed to cover a bulletin board, you would need to calculate the area of the bulletin board.
For the second question, to determine how far Candy walks each evening around a square block, the formula to use is F. P=4xs. The perimeter of a square is calculated by multiplying the length of one side by four.
For the third question, to find the number of cubic feet in Jayne's trunk, the formula to use is C. V=lxwxh. This formula calculates the volume of a rectangular prism by multiplying the length, width, and height.
Finally, for the fourth question, to determine the amount of baseboard needed for the dining room walls, the carpenter and Bradley needed to know G. Perimeter. The perimeter of a shape is the measurement of its outer boundary, which is what they needed to calculate for the baseboard.
