if you are wondering how, multiply length times width time height.
The formula for calculating the volume of a hexagonal prism is to take the area of the hexagon, then multiply it by the height of the prism.
W = Volume x weight density
The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the amount of space it encloses. The volume V of a triangular prism is the product of the area B of a base and the height h of the prism. (The bases are triangles. In a special case of a right triangular prism the bases are right triangles)
The formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism is: Length x width x height Example, if length=2cm, width=4cm, and height is 2cm your answer would be: 2 x 4 x 2 = 16 cm3
Calculating the volume (V) of an octagonal prism involves finding the area (A) of the octagon that is an end (or base), and then simply multiplying it by the length (L) of the prism. The area of an octagon with a side of length s is given by this formula: Aoctagon = 2 (1 + sqrt 2) s2 or about 4.8284 s2 If we take that and multiply it by the length of the prism, we should arrive at the volume thus: Voctagonal prism = L x Aoctagon
The volume of any prism can be found by calculating the area of the base and multiplying it by the height of the prism. Recall that a prism is a solid shape composed of a base that is a polygon. By translating that base "up" and adding the "sides" to create the solid shape, you have constructed the prism. And now you can calculate its volume.Note that the base could be triangular, or could be a square, a pentagon, hexagon, or any other polygon. Standard rules apply for calculating the areas of these polygons.
Multiplication is commutative. To find the volume, you will be multiplying the side lengths together. It doesn't matter what order they are in.
If a calculation of volume in cubic inches is needed, all dimensions need to be converted to inches before calculating the volume. For example, if calculating a rectangular prism in cubic inches, the dimensions need to be converted to inches, then the volume is calculated as length times width times height.
1. Measure it... OR, if you have the volume already and it's an annoying problem-solving question: 2. Divide the volume by the area of one of the hexagonal faces
There is no formula for calculating the volume of a classroom. A classroom's volume will be calculated based upon the shape of the room. If the classroom has the shape of a cube or rectangular prism, its approximate volume can be calculated by multiplying the length by the width by the height of the room.
Volume of a Rectangular Prism The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by the formula: volume=length*width*height
The volume of the prism is three times as much as that of the prism.
