The volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its length, width, and height.

105cm^3

Practice makes perfect

Let's consider the given rectangular prism.

We want to find 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 = 7, w= 3, and h= 5. Let's substitute these values into the formula and calculate the volume of the prism!

V = l w h
V = 7 (3) (5)
V = 105

The volume of the rectangular prism is 105 cubic centimeters.
