Volume of Rectangular Prisms

Front

What is the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 5 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 4 cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = 5 cm × 3 cm × 4 cm = 60 cubic cm

Front

What units are used to measure volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cubic centimeters, cubic inches, cubic meters) are used to measure volume.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 2 in, width of 3 in, and height of 4 in?

Back

Volume = 2 in × 3 in × 4 in = 24 cubic in

Front

How does changing the height of a rectangular prism affect its volume?

Back

Increasing the height increases the volume, while decreasing the height decreases the volume, assuming length and width remain constant.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 1 m × 1 m × 1 m?

Back

Volume = 1 m × 1 m × 1 m = 1 cubic meter

Front

If the width of a rectangular prism is doubled, how does that affect the volume?

Back

The volume will also double if the length and height remain the same.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 10 cm, width of 5 cm, and height of 2 cm?

Back

Volume = 10 cm × 5 cm × 2 cm = 100 cubic cm

Front

What is the relationship between the dimensions of a rectangular prism and its volume?

Back

The volume is directly proportional to the product of its length, width, and height.

Front

If a rectangular prism has a volume of 48 cubic cm and a height of 4 cm, what is the area of the base?

Back

Area of the base = Volume ÷ Height = 48 cubic cm ÷ 4 cm = 12 square cm
