Question

Answer 1

Answer:

573.3 cubic inches or 573 3/10 cubic inches of ice cream

Step-by-step explanation:

An ice cream cake mold in the shape of a right square prism has a base area of 110 1/4 square inches and a height of 5 1/5 inches.

To solve the above question, we have to find the volume of the square prism

Volume = Base Area × Height

Volume = 110 1/4 square inches × 5 1/5 inches

Volume = 441/4 in² × 26/5 in

= 573.3 cubic inches or 573 3/10 cubic inches

Therefore, the maximum amount of ice cream that can fit into the cake mold without overflowing is 573.3 cubic inches or 573 3/10 cubic inches of ice cream
