D1 1/4
A rectangular prism has a volume of 180 cubic centimeters. Its length is 9 cm and its width is 4 cm. What is its height in centimeters?
Answer:
27
Multiply as if there were no decimal point: 45 × 6 = 270. 4.5 has one decimal place, so the answer does too: 27.0, which is 27 meters.
B (1 5/12)
9/12 + 8/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12. Add fractions only after rewriting them with the same denominator.
5
180 ÷ 36 = 5, so the height is 5 cm. To find a missing dimension, divide the volume by the product of the other two.
Equivalent answers count as correct: 2/4 for 1/2, 0.5 for 1/2, and so on.
