Understanding Rectangular Prisms and Volume

This video tutorial teaches how to find the missing side length of a rectangular prism when the volume and two dimensions are known. It explains the use of inverse operations, specifically division, to solve for the missing dimension. The tutorial includes a detailed example problem and verifies the solution by recalculating the volume. The video is divided into two parts, with the first focusing on the basic method and the second promising advanced techniques for exam success.

What is the first step in finding the missing side length of a rectangular prism when the volume and two dimensions are known?

• Add all dimensions together.

• Multiply all dimensions together.

• Subtract the known dimensions from the volume.

• Divide the volume by one of the known dimensions.
