Period 8 Volume - Rectangular Prisms

Front

What is the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 5 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 4 cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = 5 cm × 3 cm × 4 cm = 60 cm³

Front

What unit is used to measure volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cm³, in³) are used to measure volume.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 2 in, 3 in, and 4 in?

Back

Volume = 2 in × 3 in × 4 in = 24 in³

Front

How does changing the height of a rectangular prism affect its volume?

Back

Increasing the height increases the volume, while decreasing the height decreases the volume.

Front

What is the volume of a box with a length of 10 in, a width of 5 in, and a height of 2 in?

Back

Volume = 10 in × 5 in × 2 in = 100 in³

Front

If the dimensions of a rectangular prism are doubled, how does the volume change?

Back

The volume increases by a factor of 8 (2³) because volume is a three-dimensional measurement.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 7 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 5 cm?

Back

Volume = 7 cm × 3 cm × 5 cm = 105 cm³

Front

What is the volume of a cereal box that measures 12 in × 8 in × 24 in?

Back

Volume = 12 in × 8 in × 24 in = 2,304 in³

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 15 cm, a width of 10 cm, and a height of 2 cm?

Back

Volume = 15 cm × 10 cm × 2 cm = 300 cm³
