Volume of Rectangular Prisms

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

The volume of a rectangular prism is the amount of space it occupies, calculated using the formula V = Lwh, where L is length, w is width, and h is height.

Front

What is the formula used to find the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

V = Lwh

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 5 cm, width of 3 cm, and height of 2 cm, what is its volume?

Back

30 cubic cm (V = 5 * 3 * 2 = 30)

Front

What are the units used to measure volume?

Back

Common units for volume include cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic inches (in³), liters (L), and gallons.

How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 4 in., width of 6 in., and height of 10 in.?

Back

240 cubic inches (V = 4 * 6 * 10 = 240)

Front

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

Back

24 cubic meters (V = 2 * 3 * 4 = 24)

Front

If the dimensions of a rectangular prism are doubled, how does the volume change?

Back

The volume increases by a factor of 8, since volume is proportional to the cube of the dimensions.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 1 ft, width of 1 ft, and height of 1 ft?

Back

1 cubic foot (V = 1 * 1 * 1 = 1)

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

100 cubic cm (V = 10 * 5 * 2 = 100)

Front

What happens to the volume if the height of a rectangular prism is halved?

Back

The volume is also halved, as volume is directly proportional to height.
