To determine

To find:

The volume of the prism.

Answer to Problem 10PPS

The volume of the prism is ${\text{30 in}}^3$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

  

Calculation:

The base is rectangle.

Volume of the prism is:

  $V=lwh$

Substitute $l=3$ , $w=2$ and $h=5$ in the above formula.

  $\begin{array}{c}V=lwh\\ =3\cdot 2\cdot 5\\ =30{\text{ in}}^3\end{array}$

Hence the volume of the prism is ${\text{30 in}}^3$ .
