What is the volume of the following rectangular prism?

Explanation:

Convert the mixed number 3 & 2/3 to an improper fraction

3 & 2/3 = 3 + 2/3

3 & 2/3 = 9/3 + 2/3

3 & 2/3 = (9+2)/3

3 & 2/3 = 11/3

The prism has a base area of 9 square units and a height of 11/3 units.

Multiply the base area by the height to get the volume

volume = (base area)*(height)

volume = (9)*(11/3)

volume = 99/3

volume = 33 cubic units

You could choose to not convert to an improper fraction, and your steps may look like this

volume = (base area)*(height)

volume = (9)*(3 + 2/3)

volume = 9*3 + 9*(2/3) distribute

volume = 27 + 18/3

volume = 27 + 6

volume = 33 cubic units

Either way we get the same volume.

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
