What is the volume of a rectangular prism with the dimensions: base 3 1 2 cm, height 1 1 2 cm, and length 5 1 2 cm?

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The volume of a rectangular prism is $28\frac{7}{8}\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the rectangular prism is equal to

$V=BHL$

Convert the given dimensions to an improper fractions

$B=3\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{3*2+1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\ cm$

$H=1\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{1*2+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\ cm$

$L=5\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{5*2+1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}\ cm$

substitute in the formula

$V=(\frac{7}{2})(\frac{3}{2})(\frac{11}{2})=\frac{231}{8}\ cm^{3}$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{231}{8}=\frac{224}{8}+\frac{7}{8}=28\frac{7}{8}\ cm^{3}$
