Question

a. Suppose we had a triangular prism that was 14 cm long with a
triangular base of 1 cm and a height of 0.8 cm. What
would the volume of that prism be, and do you
believe that it actually is a better estimate?

b. Suppose that we had a marker that was twice as thick and twice as tall, but the same length. Approximately how many of the cubes would we need to make a good estimate of its volume? Explain/show how you know this.

Jason used his centimeter cubes to find the volume
of this box. He found the volume was 24 cubic
centimeters. Explain how he found the volume.
Estimating Volume
Shanila estimated the volume of a marker by
building a model of it with her centimeter
connecting cubes. She estimated that the volume
was about 14 cubic centimeters.
