Volume of Rectangular Prisms

Front

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

Back

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula: Volume = length × width × height.

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 4 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 2 cm, what is its volume?

Back

The volume is 4 cm × 3 cm × 2 cm = 24 cubic cm.

Front

What are the units used to measure volume?

Back

Volume is typically measured in cubic units, such as cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic meters (m³), or cubic inches (in³).

Front

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

Back

Changing any of the dimensions (length, width, or height) will change the volume. Increasing a dimension increases the volume, while decreasing it decreases the volume.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 5 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 2 cm?

Back

The volume is 5 cm × 3 cm × 2 cm = 30 cubic cm.

Front

If the volume of a rectangular prism is 90 cubic cm, and its height is 5 cm, what is the area of its base?

Back

The area of the base can be found using the formula: Area = Volume / Height. So, Area = 90 cm³ / 5 cm = 18 cm².

Front

What is the relationship between the volume of a rectangular prism and its base area?

Back

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to the area of its base multiplied by its height: Volume = Base Area × Height.

Front

How do you convert cubic inches to cubic centimeters?

Back

To convert cubic inches to cubic centimeters, multiply the volume in cubic inches by 16.387.

Front

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

Back

The volume is 2 in × 3 in × 4 in = 24 cubic inches.

Front

If a rectangular prism has a volume of 12 cubic inches and a height of 3 inches, what is the area of its base?

Back

Area = Volume / Height = 12 in³ / 3 in = 4 in².
