Finding a Formula for the Volume of a Rectangular Prism

Question 5 • FL-1205010-M/J Grade 6 Mathematics B -GF

A right rectangular prism has a height of 15 meters, a length of 4 meters, and a width of 3 meters. Which expressions show how to calculate the volume? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
2(15 + 4 + 3)
B
15 + 4 + 3
C
3(4) + 15
D
60(3)
E
12(15)
F
15(4)(3)
G
2(4)(3)(15)
H
60(4)

Explanation

The volume of a rectangular prism is length × width × height. Using the measurements gives 4 × 3 × 15, which can be written as 12(15), 60(3), or 15(4)(3). These are choices E, D, and F. The other expressions do not multiply all three dimensions exactly once.
