or the dimensions of a prism from its volume.

∙ 11y agoJust knowing the volume in centimeters cubed of a rectangular prism would not allow you to find the dimensions.
Volume of a Rectangular Prism The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by the formula: volume=length*width*height
You cannot. It could be a long narrow prism or a short squat one and the volume alone does not tell you which one of these shapes - or something in between - the prism has.
The answer depends on what information you have been provided with. If you have only the linear dimensions then it is:Length * Breadth * Height
-- Measure the length, width, and height of the prism. -- Multiply the three numbers. The result is the volume of the prism.

your going to have to guess!

You cannot. There is not enough information.
By measuring them!

Volume of rectangular prism = area of base x height
To find the volume on a rectangular prism, the equaton is: length*width*height
-- Measure the length, width, and height of the prism. -- Multiply the three numbers. The result is the volume of the prism.
