Question

A rectangular prism has a length of 212 m, a width of 4 m, and a height of 214 m. What is the volume of the prism? Enter your answer in the box. m³

Answer 1

To answer the problem multiply the length, width, and height. 
212 x 4 x 214= 181,472
The volume is 181,472 m³

Answer 2

The dimension of the rectangular prism given

length = 212m

width = 4m

Height = 214m

A rectangular prism is also known as a cuboid

To find the volume of any shape, we multiply the area of the base times the height

Here the base is a rectangle hence the area would be given by the formula

length × width

212 × 4 = 848 sq. m

The volume is given by

area of base × height

848 x 214 = 181472 cu. m
