Multiple Choice

Which 3D shape has the greatest volume?

(all the little boxes are the same size)

Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements is true about the volume of shapes?

• Volume is measured in square units.

• Volume is the amount of space inside a 3D shape.

• Volume can only be calculated for cubes.

• Volume is the same as area.

Steps for finding Volume of a Prism

• Find the area of the base.

• Multiply the area of the base and the height of the prism.

Rectangular PRISMS

• V = Bh

  • B is the AREA of the BASE

  • Can also be (l x w x h)​

• V= (2 x 5) 4

• V= (10) 4

• V= 40 in cube​

Multiple Choice

What does the "B" in the volume formula V = B x h stand for?

• Bottom of the object

• Box

• Between

• Area of the base

Multiple Choice

Two boxes are shaped like rectangular prisms. Box A has dimensions 2 cm by 3 cm by 4 cm, and Box B has dimensions 4 cm by 4 cm by 4 cm. How do the volumes of Box A and Box B compare?

• Box A has a larger volume than Box B.

• Box B has a larger volume than Box A.

Triangular PRISMS

• V = Bh

  • B is the AREA of the BASE

  • Triangle Area = bh/2

  • Can also be(bh/2)h

• V = ({5 x 3}/2) x 10

• V = (15/2) x 10​

• V= 7.5 x 10

• V = 75 cm cube​
