Question

A packing box has the dimensions 3 by 2 by 51
2 feet. What is the volume of the box?

( A rectangular prism with a length of 3 feet, width of 2 feet, and height of 5 and one-half feet. )

Use the formula V = Bh to calculate the volume of the packing box.

The area of the base of the box, B, is __ ft.2.
The volume of the box is __ ft.3.

Answer 1

Answer:the area of the base of the box, B, is 6 ft2

The volume of the box is 33ft3

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find area of the base is bh (bass x height)

Formula for volume is (base x length)

Answer 2

The required volume of the packing box is 33 ft^3 and area of the base B is 6 ft^2

Area of the Rectangular Prism:

The area of the rectangular prism having a length and b width with h height is

Volume = a b h

If we are interested t find area of the base then

B = a b

How to calculate volume of rectangular prism?

here we have given that

a = 3 feet

b = 2 feet

h = $5\frac{1}{2}$ = 11/2 feet

Therefore the area of the base B = a b = 3 x 2 = 6 ft^2

Now the volume of the object is

V = B h

V = 6 x 11/2 = 33 ft^3

This is the required volume of the rectangular prism
