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

• Volume = Length / Width / Height

• Volume = Length * Width * Height

• Volume = Length - Width - Height

• Volume = Length + Width + Height

In complex shapes, why can't you just pick any three numbers to calculate volume?

• Because you might get a larger volume

• Because it's easier to guess

• Because all numbers are the same

• To avoid incorrect calculations
