Question

calculate the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 4.4 cm, a width of 3.1 cm, and a height of 6.3 cm. (as before, you do not need to enter the units since they are provided to the right of the answer box.)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the volume formula

The volume \( V \) of a rectangular prism is \( V = l\times w\times h \), where \( l = 4.4\), \( w = 3.1\), \( h = 6.3\).

Step2: Substitute the values

\( V=4.4\times3.1\times6.3 \).
First, calculate \(4.4\times3.1 = 13.64\).
Then, calculate \(13.64\times6.3\).
\(13.64\times6.3=(13 + 0.64)\times6.3=13\times6.3+0.64\times6.3\).
\(13\times6.3 = 81.9\), \(0.64\times6.3=(0.6 + 0.04)\times6.3=0.6\times6.3+0.04\times6.3 = 3.78+0.252 = 4.032\).
\(81.9+4.032 = 85.932\).

Answer:

\(85.932\)
