Question

1. a rectangular prism has a length of 6 inches, width of 4 inches, and height of 3 inches. what is its volume?

a. 60in³
b. 54in³
c. 48in³
d. 72in³

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the volume formula

The volume formula for a rectangular prism is \(V = l\times w\times h\) (where \(l\) is length, \(w\) is width, \(h\) is height).

Step2: Substitute the values

Given \(l = 6\) inches, \(w = 4\) inches, \(h = 3\) inches. Substitute into the formula: \(V=6\times4\times3\).

Step3: Calculate the product

First, \(6\times4 = 24\), then \(24\times3=72\). So \(V = 72in^{3}\).

Answer:

D. \(72in^{3}\)
