Remember the formula for the volume of a prism.

192 cubic meters

Practice makes perfect

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V = l w h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height of the prism. Let's see the given measurements on the rectangular prism.

The volume of a rectangular prism with length l, width w, and height h can be calculated using the following formula. V=l wh We are given that l= 8, meters w= 4, meters and h= 6, meters so we have enough information to calculate the value of V.
V=l wh
V= 8( 4)( 6)
V=192
The volume of the prism is 192 cubic meters.
