Calculating Volume of Rectangular Prisms

What does volume measure in an object?

• The space an object occupies

• The surface area of the object

• The weight of the object

• The length of the object

How can volume be practically understood in a classroom setting?

• By measuring the length of objects

• By comparing the sizes of objects visually

• By weighing objects

• By counting how many one centimeter cubes fit inside an object
