Question

Julian calculates the volume of a rectangular prism with the dimensions 3/4ft by 4 feet by 1/2 ft. His work is shown here.

Answer 1

Answer:

He multiplied the denominators incorrectly

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula

V=LWH

we have

L=3/4 ft

W=5/1 ft

H=1/2

substitute

V=(3/4)(5/1)(1/2)= 3x5x1=    15

                           ₋₋₋₋₋₋₋₋    ₋₋₋₋ ft³

                           4x1x2=    8

                       

therefore

He multiplied the denominators incorrectly
