Let's solve the volume practice problem step by step.
We are given four 3D shapes, all of which are
rectangular prisms (also known as boxes). The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is:
$$
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
$$
We will calculate the volume for each shape and include the correct units.
---
Shape 1:
- Dimensions: 4 cm × 4 cm × 4 cm
This is a cube (all sides equal).
$$
\text{Volume} = 4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64 \text{ cm}^3
$$
✔ Answer: 64 cm³
---
Shape 2:
- Dimensions: 2 cm × 6 cm × 2 cm
(Note: The height is 2 cm, width is 6 cm, depth is 2 cm)
$$
\text{Volume} = 2 \times 6 \times 2 = 24 \text{ cm}^3
$$
✔ Answer: 24 cm³
---
Shape 3:
- Dimensions: 10 cm × 3 cm × 3 cm
$$
\text{Volume} = 10 \times 3 \times 3 = 90 \text{ cm}^3
$$
✔ Answer: 90 cm³
---
Shape 4:
- Dimensions: 12 cm × 6 cm × 1 cm
$$
\text{Volume} = 12 \times 6 \times 1 = 72 \text{ cm}^3
$$
✔ Answer: 72 cm³
---
✔ Final Answers:
1.
64 cm³
2.
24 cm³
3.
90 cm³
4.
72 cm³
