Volume of rectangular prisms

Front

What is the formula to calculate 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 4 cm, and a height of 3 cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = 5 cm × 4 cm × 3 cm = 60 cm³

Front

What unit is commonly used to measure volume in the metric system?

Back

Cubic centimeters (cm³) or liters (L)

Front

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

Back

Volume = 10 m × 2 m × 5 m = 100 m³

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.

Front

What is the volume of a fish tank that is 45 cm long, 25 cm wide, and 10 cm deep?

Back

Volume = 45 cm × 25 cm × 10 cm = 11250 cm³

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 3 ft × 4 ft × 5 ft?

Back

Volume = 3 ft × 4 ft × 5 ft = 60 ft³

Front

If a box has a volume of 500 cm³ and a height of 10 cm, what is the area of the base?

Back

Area of base = Volume ÷ Height = 500 cm³ ÷ 10 cm = 50 cm²

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 6 in, a width of 3 in, and a height of 2 in?

Back

Volume = 6 in × 3 in × 2 in = 36 in³

Front

What is the relationship between volume and capacity?

Back

Volume refers to the amount of space an object occupies, while capacity refers to the amount of liquid a container can hold.
