question 9 (multiple choice worth 2 points)
(volume of rectangular prisms mc)
a coach needs to fill a rectangular container with water to have available for karate practice. if the dimensions of the container are 30 inches by 22 inches by 20.8 inches, what is the maximum amount of water that the rectangular container will hold?
1,741.6 in³
3,483.2 in³
6,864 in³
13,728 in³

Explanation:

Step1: Recall volume formula

The volume $V$ of a rectangular prism is $V = l \times w \times h$, where $l$, $w$, $h$ are length, width, height.

Step2: Substitute given values

$V = 30 \times 22 \times 20.8$

Step3: Calculate the product

First compute $30 \times 22 = 660$, then $660 \times 20.8 = 3483.2$
So $V = 3483.2$ in³

Answer:

3,483.2 in³
