Calculating Volume With Fractions

The prism below is made of cubes that measures 1/2 of a centimeter on one side.

What is the Volume? (in fractions)

V= length x width x height

How to calculate:

since each cube measure 1/2 of a centimeter on one side, the dimension is calculated first

length = 2 x 1/2 cm

width = 3 x 1/2 cm

height = 3 x 1/2 cm

then you calculate to find the cubic cm V= l*w*h

Isolde is stacking books. The stack of books forms a rectangular prism.

Each book is the same size. Isolde knows the area of the base of one book is 22 1/2 square inches and each book is 3/4 inch thick.

The volume of a stack of 9 books is _ cubic inches?

V = bh

don't forget to calculate the height of the books by ...

h = (3/4)(9)

= 6 3/4 inches

now find the Volume = bh
