What is rounding in mathematics?

Back

Rounding is the process of adjusting the digits of a number to make it simpler while keeping its value close to what it was. For example, rounding 2.301 to the nearest whole number gives 2.

How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

The volume of a rectangular prism is found by multiplying its length, width, and height. The formula is: Volume = Length × Width × Height.

Front

What is the difference between two numbers?

Back

The difference is the result of subtracting one number from another. For example, the difference between 96.3 and 42 is 54.3.

What is a right rectangular prism?

Back

A right rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape with six rectangular faces, where all angles are right angles. It has length, width, and height.

Front

What is the nearest whole number to a decimal?

How do you find a missing dimension of a rectangular prism when given volume?

Back

To find a missing dimension, use the formula for volume (Volume = Length × Width × Height) and rearrange it to solve for the missing dimension.
