[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The volume of the rectangular prism can be found by multiplying the number of cubes in each dimension.

Number of cubes in the length = 3 columns
Number of cubes in the width = 2 cubes
Number of cubes in the height = 2 cubes

Volume = 3 x 2 x 2 = 12 cubes

Since each cube has a side length of 1/3 inch, the volume of the prism is 12 x (1/3)^3 = 12 x 1/27 = 12/27 = 4/9 cubic inches.

Therefore, the volume of the prism is 4/9 cubic inches.
