You cannot, unless you know what the shape is. For a very few regular shapes, the volume can provide information on the linear dimensions of the object. But even for something as simple as a cuboid (but not a cube), that does not work - there are an infinite number of possible measures for the length/breadth/height which will give the same volume.

Once you have these linear dimensions, determining the surface area is a lot more straightforward.

What is the volume of a rectangular prism if the surface area is 34?

To find the volume of a rectangular prism when given the surface area, we need more information than just the surface area. The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l, w, and h are the length, width, and height of the prism, respectively. Without knowing at least one of these dimensions, we cannot determine the volume of the prism.
