Question

A rectangular solid object is 3 in. high, 6 in. long and 2 in. wide. What is its volume?

Answer 1

Answer:

The volume is 36 inches cubed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is W*L*H.

You are given the H=3i, W=2 in, and L=6 in.

So now we plug into our formula for the volume of a rectangular prism which will result in 2*6*3=12*3=36.

The volume is 36 inches cubed.

Answer 2

Answer: $36\ in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated with this formula:

$V=lwh$

Where "l" is the lenght, "w" is the width and "h" is the height.

In this case we know that this rectangular solid is 3 inches high, 6 inches long and 2 inches wide. Then:

$h=3\ in\\l=6\ in\\w=2\ in$

Then, substituting these values into the formula, we get that its volume is:

$V=(6\ in)(2\ in)(3\ in)\\\\V=36\ in^3$
