The volume of a prism can be calculated using the following formula.
V=Bh
First, we can calculate the area of the base B. Note, the base is a rectangle, so we can calculate its area using the formula for the area of a rectangle which is calculated by multiplying the rectangle's length l by its width w.
B=l w
By substituting l= 6 and w= 2, we can find B.
We calculated that the area of the base B is 12cm^2. We are also given that the height of this prism h equals 12cm. Let's substitute these values into the formula and find V.
