A mixed number in simplest form, in the box is 40 5/8 cm^3.
We have given that,
The figure contains a right rectangular prism. The length of the prism is labeled 6 and one-half centimeters, the width is labeled 2 and one-half centimeters, and the height is labeled 2 and one-half centimeters.
<h3>What is the volume of the prism?</h3>
The figure is a rectangular prism, so the formula would be Volume = length x width x height.
length = 6 .5cm
width = 2.5cm
height = 2.5cm
If you plug everything you have in the problem into the volume equation, you would get
volume = 6.5cm x 2.5cm x 2.5 cm.
Without a calculator first, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
6 .5=13/2
2.5 = 5/2
Volume = 13/2 x 5/2 x 5/2
When you multiply everything together you should get.
As a mixed number, that would be 40 5/8.
