What is meant by volume of prism?

  • The volume of a prism is defined as the total space occupied by the three-dimensional object.
  • Mathematically, it is defined as the product of the area of the base and the length. Therefore, The volume of a Prism = Base Area × Length.
  • The formula for the volume of a prism is V=Bh , where B is the base area and h is the height.

Volume =  base area × height

             = 9/10 × 1/3

             =  3 /10  foot³
