Introduction - Volume of Rectangular Prisms

Main concept

Volume is the amount of space an object takes up found by multiplying length × width × height

Formula

V = l × w × h

Units

Volume is always in cubic units like cm3 in3 or m3

Key points

Volume uses three dimensions multiply all three together to find space inside units are cubic because of three measurements

Example

Length = 5 cm Width = 3 cm Height = 2 cm → V = 5 × 3 × 2 = 30 cm3

Remember

Volume is the space inside a 3D figure always use cubic units formula for rectangular prism is length × width × height
