Question

Help me with A and B please

Answer 1

Part A.

Ashwin had a 4-cm cube.

volume of cube = side^3

volume = (4 cm)^3 = 64 cm^3

Ashwin has 64 small cubes.

We need to find the volumes of all prisms in Part A. Only prisms with at most 64 cm^3 volume can be the answer.

A. v = 2 * 4 * 7 = 28

B. v = 4 * 5 * 6 = 120

C. v = 5 * 5 * 4 = 100

D. v = 4 * 7 * 5 = 140

E. v = 3 * 5 * 4 = 60

Part A. answer: A, E

Part B.

Dora had a 5-cm cube.

volume of cube = side^3

volume = (5 cm)^3 = 125 cm^3

Dora has 125 small cubes.

We need to find the volumes of all prisms in Part B. Only prisms with at most 125 cm^3 volume can be the answer.

A. v = 3 * 3 * 8 = 72

B. v = 3 * 4 * 5 = 60

C. v = 6 * 6 * 4 = 144

D. v = 5 * 8 * 4 = 160

E. v = 3 * 5 * 4 = 60

Part B. answer: A, B, E
