Since the plane if cutting through the prism to make 5 sides, than the original shape needs to have less than 5.
 A prism, is a 3D shape, so you can't have a 2 sided shape.

Now you have a choice of 3 or 4 sides.

A 3 sides shape is a triangle, which also can't be cut into a 5 sided prism,
 so the answer would need to be 4.
 The answer is B

Use the digits 2,3,and 5 to create a fraction and a whole number with a product greater than 2
mylen [45]

Product is multiplication.

Since the answer needs to be greater than 2 either the fraction needs to be an improper fraction ( meaning the fraction would be greater than 1) or the whole number would need to be greater than 2.


One answer would be 5 x 2/3 = 3 1/3

Misha Larkins [42]
A polygon with four sides is known as a quadrilateral.
Quadrilaterals have four sides and four angles as well.
There's many different types of quadrilaterals:
square
rectangle
rhombus
trapezoid
The trapezoid has to meet qualifications to be considered a quadrilateral, such as a pair of parellel lines.
