There is no rectangle shown, nor ruler given to measure and attempt your work. Nevertheless, I will illustrate how to find the volume of a rectangular prism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a rectangular prism of sides

Length = l

Width = w

Height = h

The volume of this prism is given as

V = l × b × h.

Example, if

Length = 4cm

Width = 3cm

Height = 2cm

Volume = 4 × 3 × 2

= 24cm³.
