Question

a rectangular prism has a volume of 33 3/4 cubic inches and a height of 2 and 1/4 in what is the area of the base​

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the base is 15 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

33 3/4 = 33.75

2 1/4 = 2.25

To calculate the area base of a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:

a = area

v = volume  = 33.75 in³

h = height  = 2.25 in

v = a * h

we solve a

a = v / h

we replace the values that ​​we know        

a = 33.75 in³  / 2.25 in

a = 15 in²

The area of the base is 15 in²
