Why are length x width x height and base x height both correct ways to find volume of a rectangular prism?

<em>Answer</em>

<em>Because the base is equal to the area, (L*W). So essentially, they are the same equation! </em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

We normally find the area when dealing with two-dimensional shapes, correct? So, when the shape becomes 3-dimensional, it now includes a base <em>and </em>a height! You multiply these together to get the volume (the amount of space it takes up).

If we were to add a height to a regular rectangle, what was once the entire shape, now becomes the base of a rectangular prism! The length and the width of that prism is equal to the base, which makes both equations equal to each other!

pogonyaev

Answer:

72/4=18 so she could make their lunch for 18 days

Step-by-step explanation:

so it would be 6x12 for the bagels which would be 72

for the apples it would be 8x9 which is 72

the cookies would be 12x6 to get 72

and the juice boxes would be 9x8 to get 72

divide that by 4 to get 18

What is the sum of 7/22 and 9/22
natulia [17]
 when u have a common a denominator then you just add the numerator that would be 7 and 9. 7 + 9= 16
so ur solution would be 16/22 and then u would simplify by dividing both values by 2.
so the solution is8/11
