Question

What is the volume of the prism? Enter your answer in the box as a mixed number in simplest form it has a height of 1 1/2 a length of 2 1/2 and a width of 3 1/2

Answer 1

The answer is 105/8

I know because you have to divide 2 and simplify the answer you get.

Answer 2

the volume would be length x width x height:

1 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 3 1/2

1 1/2 = 3/2
2 1/2 = 5/2
3 1/2 = 7/2

3/2 x 5/2 x 7/2
multiply the three top numbers and then the 3 bottom numbers:
3*5*7 = 105
2*2*2 = 8

so the answer is 105/8, now simplify to get 13 1/8 cubic units
