volume is simply how much something can hold. area is based on the amount of space covering the figure. the short cut for surface area for a prism is lateral area+2base areas this is as simple as it gets for volume for a prism it is lwh

How is findeng volume different from finding area?
Area is of a flat surface whereas volume is of a three dimensional shape.
What is pi used for in geometry?
Some of the many applications that pi is used in geometry are as follows:- Finding the area of a circle Finding the circumference of a circle Finding the volume of a sphere Finding the surface area of a sphere Finding the surface area and volume of a cylinder Finding the volume of a cone
What is the formula for the volume of a sphere in terms of surface area S?

Can two rectangular prisms have the same surface area but different volume?
Yes, they can. They can also have the same surface area, but different volume.
How do you compare the surface are to volume ratio of cells of different size?
You need to:* Calculate the surface area * Calculate the volume * Divide the surface area by the volume
What are the calculations of finding the volume and surface of a sphere?
sphere surface area = 4 * pi * (radius2) and: sphere volume = 4/3 * pi * (radius3) ( pi = 3.141592654 approx)
