The individual-size box of cereal is a rectangular prism with a volume of 44.625 inches³.
What is the volume of a rectangular prism?
The volume of rectangular prism of length l, width w and height h is given by:
V = lwh.
In this problem, the standard dimensions are:
- l = 3(1/2) = 3 + 0.5 = 3.5 inches.
- w = 8(1/2) = 8 + 0.5 = 8.5 inches.
The individual-size box has a 1/10 of the volume of the original box, hence:
V = 0.1 x 3.5 x 8.5 x 15 = 44.625 inches³.
