which phrase best describes a figure with dimensions of 2 units by 2 units by 4 units and a volume of 16 cubic units
Accepted Solution
A:
we know that
A figure with dimensions of 2 units by 2 units by 4 units and a volume of 16 cubic units is a prism with a square base length side of the square base=2 units height of the prism=4 units [volume of a prism]=2*2*4---->16 units³
or is a prism with a rectangular base length side of the rectangle base=4 units width side of the rectangle base=2 units height of the prism=2 units [volume of a prism]=4*2*2---->16 units³
therefore if the volume is 16 units ³ that means the solid figure can be filled with 16 cubes that each measure 1 cubic unit so the volume of one cube is------> 1*1*1------> 1 unit³ volume of 16 cubes-----> 16*1 unit³------> 16 unit³
