The base area cannot be 56 inches because 56 inches is NOT a measure of area - it is a measure of distance.
If, the base area was 56 SQUARE inches, the area would be 56*6 = 336 CUBIC inches.
Volume prism = area base × height
= 56 square inches × 6 inches
= 336 cubic inches
You can only find the area of the base with this information. The volume divided by the height will give you the area of the base.
All you need is the area of the base and then multiply that by the height and you have the volume of any 3-D shape.
The volume of a prism is the area of the base (or the cross section of the prism that is perpendicular to the height) times the height.V = Ab * h
the Surface area of a Rectangular prism is (2 x Length x Breadth) + (2 x Length x Height) + (2 x Breadth x Height) By austin from Covenant christian school
Area of a rectangular prism = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is length, w is width, and h is height.
Volume of rectangular prism = area of base x height
Volume of a rectangular prism = base x height. If volume and height are known, solve for base area by dividing volume by height.

Volume of a rectangular prism is equal to the base area x height. (V=BxH or Volume = Base Area * Height) To get the base area, simply divide the volume by the height. (B=V/H or Base Area = Volume / Height)
Volume = Base Area * Height So Height = Volume/Base Area
Multiply the base area by the height.
The base area * height = Volume
Volume = cross-section area*height
Volume of a prism and a cylinder= cross-section area*height or length
20x3y
Multiply the base area by the height.
