[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height together.

Length: 2 ft
Width: 4 1/6 ft = 25/6 ft
Height: 8 1/2 ft = 17/2 ft

Volume = 2 ft x 25/6 ft x 17/2 ft
Volume = 2 x 25 x 17 / 6 x 2
Volume = 850 / 12
Volume = 70 5/6 ft^3

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 70 5/6 cubic feet.
