volume

calculating the volume of a prism that has fractional or decimal dimensions. Now the volume of a rectangular prism can be found by using the formula length times width times height, or volume is equal to the area of the base times height.

the same formula, because length times width is going to give you the area of the base, which is a rectangle, length times width.

going to be multiplying by the height of the prism, which is 5 centimeters.

mixed number and rewrite it as an improper fraction.

2 and 3/4-- can be converted into an improper fraction by taking 4 times 2, which is 8, and then adding 3, which is 11. So I end up with 11/4. rewrite 4 as 4/1.

45/4 is the same thing as 11 because 44 can be divisible by 4. So writing my work up here, 44/4 comes down to be 11. And we're taking 11 times 5. 55 cubic centimeters.

So I have 4 and 5/10 multiplied by 6.

Now 6 times 5, well that's 30, bring up the 3.

6 times 4 is 24, plus 3 more is 27.

so I know it's equivalent to 94 and 5/10.

I paid attention in class I don't know what any of this is
