Question

Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows a 3 D rectangular cuboid with length of 1 start fraction 1 over 3 end fraction, a width of 1, and a height of start fraction 2 over 3 end fraction. The sides at the back that are not visible are shown as dashed lines.

You find the volume of the right rectangular prism using the formula method and want to check your answer using the cube method. What is the edge length of the cubes you will use? Lengths are given in inches. Provide your answer as a fraction reduced to the lowest terms.

The edge length of the cubes will be the greatest common divisor of the dimensions of the rectangular prism, which in this case is 1/3.

So, the edge length of the cubes that would be used to check the volume would be 1/3 inches.
