1. QuestionMultiple choice

A rectangular prism is 5 units long, 3 units wide, and 4 units high. What is its volume?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 60 cubic units.

  1. Read the problem: Identify the quantities, operation, fraction, decimal, shape, or relationship described in the problem.
  2. Show the strategy: Volume is length times width times height: 5 times 3 times 4 equals 60.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer matches the units and the context of the Delaware Grade 5 DeSSA Math task.

Volume is length times width times height: 5 times 3 times 4 equals 60.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

A rectangular prism has a volume of 72 cubic units, a length of 6 units, and a width of 4 units. What is its height?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 3 units.

  1. Read the problem: Identify the quantities, operation, fraction, decimal, shape, or relationship described in the problem.
  2. Show the strategy: The base is 6 times 4 = 24, and 72 divided by 24 equals 3.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer matches the units and the context of the Delaware Grade 5 DeSSA Math task.

The base is 6 times 4 = 24, and 72 divided by 24 equals 3.

3. QuestionMultiple choice
