Question

Find the volume of the given prism. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Would this be like the first question we did?

Answer 2

what is the formula for the volume of a prism?

Answer 3

b*h Is the b in this one area of the base?

Answer 4

yes, volume is length*width*height
we can say length*width is the area of the base, and write B*height
(personally I don't like to use single letters for area... too easy to confuse it with a length)

Answer 5

Ok. How do you know when B is area of the base and when it means length of the base?

Answer 6

I just learned Volume is area of the base times height
(say it 100 times, and I am sure you will remember it for a long time)

Answer 7

Ok. So the volume for this one would be 308.88?

Answer 8

I mean 308.9

Answer 9

yes, 308.88 rounded to the nearest 10th is 308.9

Answer 10

308.9 cc
