What is the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism?
Volume = length x width x height
100
Double! How do you find the height if the volume, length, and width are given to you.
Divide the volume by the product of length x width OR multiply length x width and then guess-multiply for the height until you get the volume

I made a tower in the shape of a rectangular prism out of blocks. The length was 8 in, width was 2 in, and height was 4 in. What was the volume of the figure?
8x2x4 = 64 cubic inches

Volume = 4 cubic inches, length = 2 inches, width = 2 inches, height = ?
Height = 1 inch

What is the volume of the figure? (see slide 4)
2x3x6=36 cubic feet
300
Volume = 12 cubic feet, width = 2 feet, height = 2 feet, length = ?
length = 3 feet

Volume = 56 cubic feet, length = 7 feet, width = 2 feet, height = ?
height = 4 feet
500
True or False. You can find the volume of a composite figure by using length x width x height
False. You would have to count the cubes, or add up the volumes of the different figures.
500
What is the volume of the figure? (see slide 5)
288 cubic cm
500
Double!! Volume = 300 cubic cm, length = 10 cm, width = 6 cm, height = ?
height = 5 cm
