V=ℓwhThe formula gives the volume V of a right rectangular prism with length ℓ, width w, and height h. What is the volume, in cubic meters, of a rectangular prism that is 5 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 4 meters tall?
Q. V=ℓwhThe formula gives the volume V of a right rectangular prism with length ℓ, width w, and height h. What is the volume, in cubic meters, of a rectangular prism that is 5 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 4 meters tall?
Identify dimensions: Identify the given dimensions of the rectangular prism.Length ℓ=5 metersWidth w=3 metersHeight h=4 metersThe formula for the volume of a right rectangular prism is V=ℓwh.
Substitute into formula: Substitute the given dimensions into the volume formula.Volume V=5meters×3meters×4meters
Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the volume.Volume V = 5×3×4Volume V = 15×4Volume V = 60 cubic meters
