A right rectangular prism has a length of 2.5 feet, a width of 3 feet, and a height of 1.5 feet. Unit cubes with side lengths of .5 foot are added to completely fill the prism with no space remaining. What is the volume, in cubic feet, of the right rectangula prism?

Respuesta :

The volume of the prism is given by:
volume=length×width×height
when the lengths were adjusted the new dimensions will be:
length=2.5+1=3.5 
width=3+1=4 ft
height=1.5 +1=2.5 ft
thus the volume will be:
v=3.5×4×2.5
v=35 cubic feet
