Could someone help me?

Can someone tell me a problem that you would have to find the volume of a rectangular prism?Could you tell me the formula on how to solve it and what the answer is?

The volume can be found using V=B h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height of the solid (the perpendicular height from the base). In a prism the base is a triangle, with an area that you calculate with the usual formula for triangles.

Hope that helped!

Rectangular prism: Base Area times height.

If it's just shaped like a brick, then Length*width*height.
