The formula to find the volume of a rectangular prism is V = l x w x h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
From the image:
- The length (l) is given as 24 centimeters.
- The base (area of the top face) is given as 240 square centimeters, which can be expressed as length x width. Since the width is not given, we can calculate it by dividing the base by the length: 240 cm^2 / 24 cm = 10 cm. So, the width (w) is 10 centimeters.
- The height (h) is given as 8 centimeters.
Now, we can calculate the volume:
V = 24 cm x 10 cm x 8 cm
V = 1920 cm^3
Therefore, the volume of the right rectangular prism is 1920 cubic centimeters.
