When you apply the volume formula, what is the volume of a moving box in the shape of a rectangular prism with a length of 2 1/4 ft., a width of 1 1/2 ft., and a height of 3/4 ft.? The answer will be a mixed fraction in cubic feet
To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you use the formula V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given:
Length = 2 1/4 ft = 9/4 ft
Width = 1 1/2 ft = 3/2 ft
Height = 3/4 ft
Now, substitute these values into the formula:
V = (9/4) * (3/2) * (3/4)
V = (27/8) * (3/4)
V = 81/32 ft^3
Therefore, the volume of the moving box is 81/32 cubic feet.
