Remember the formula for the volume of a prism.

about 236.25 cubic centimeters

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= 12.5 centimeters, w= 4.5 centimeters, and h= 4.2 centimeters, so we have enough information to calculate the value of V.
V=l wh
V= 12.5( 4.5)( 4.2)
V=236.25
The volume of the prism is 236.25 cubic centimeters.
