The answer to the question
1 hour - 200 calls |multiply 8
8 hours - 1600 calls
There are 8 employees so every employee take 1600 : 8 = 200 phone calls daily
Well well we find the area of the triangle first:
area = 1/2 * base * height
area = 1/2 * 8 1/4 * 5 3/4
area = 1/2 * 33/4 * 23/4
area = 1/2 * 759/16
area = 759 / 32
area = 23 23/32
now if we multiply the length of the triangles we get volume because the volume of the prism is really just the sum of the areas of all the triangles that make up it's length. So:
volume = 23 23/32 * 12
volume = 276 276/32
276/ 32 = 8 5/8
volume = 284 5/8
