Practice makes perfect

Let's consider the given rectangular prism.

We want to the volume of the rectangular prism. Recall that the volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its length l, width w, and height h. V = l w h In this prism, l = 1 25, w= 1, and h= 3. Let's substitute these values into the formula and calculate the volume of the prism!

V = l w h

SubstituteValues

Substitute values

V = 1 25 (1) (3)

WriteSum

Write as a sum

V = (1 + 2/5)(1)(3)
