Question

Olive's Pizza Kitchen has a new oven that is shaped like a rectangular prism. Inside, the oven is 5 feet wide and 5 feet deep so it can bake their super large pizzas. It is also 3 feet high. What is the oven's volume?

Answer 1

The volume of the oven is 75 ft^3

Explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the volume of a Pizza Kitchen’s oven which is shaped like a rectangular prism.

Now, to calculate this volume, what we do is to simply multiply the area of the base by the height of the oven.

Mathematically, the area of the base of the oven is simply = L * B = 5 * 5 = 25 ft^2

Now to get the volume, we multiply this by the height = 25 * 3 = 75 ft^3
