Example Question #1829 : Common Core Math: Grade 5

What is the volume of the figure below?

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.23.46 am

Possible Answers:

235in^3

285in^3

256in^3

150in^3

135in^3

Correct answer:

285in^3

Explanation:

If you look closely at this figure, you can see that it is made up of two rectangular prisms. In order to solve for the volume, we need to find the volume of each rectangular prism and then add the volumes together to find the total.

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.24.14 am

In order to find the length of the rectangular prism on the bottom, we had to take the height of the original figure (which was ) and subtract the height of the rectangular prism on the top (which is )

12-3=9

Now that we have the dimensions of both our rectangular prisms, we can solve for the volumes.

Remember, the formula for volume is

$v=l\times w\times h$

$v=10\times5\times3$ and $v=3\times5\times9$

v=150in^3 and v=135in^3

Next, we add the volumes together to solve for the total volume of the original figure.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}150in^3\\ +\ 135in^3\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space 285in^3}$

*Remember, volume is always measured in cubic units!

Possible Answers:

110in^3

130in^3

240 in^3

240in^2

130in^2

Correct answer:

240 in^3

Explanation:

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.24.53 am

15-2=13

Now that we have the dimensions of both our rectangular prisms, we can solve for the volumes.

Remember, the formula for volume is

$v=l\times w\times h$

$v=11\times5\times2$ and $v=2\times5\times13$

v=110in^3 and v=130in^3

Next, we add the volumes together to solve for the total volume of the original figure.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}110in^3\\ +\ 130in^3\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space 240in^3}$

Possible Answers:

424in^2

512in^2

384 in^3

436in^3

396in^3

Correct answer:

384 in^3

Explanation:

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.25.56 am

15-4=11

Now that we have the dimensions of both our rectangular prisms, we can solve for the volumes.

Remember, the formula for volume is

$v=l\times w\times h$

$v=13\times4\times4$ and $v=4\times4\times11$

v=208in^3 and v=176in^3

Next, we add the volumes together to solve for the total volume of the original figure.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}208in^3\\ +\ 176in^3\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space 384in^3}$

Example Question #21 : Recognize Volume As Additive: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Md.C.5c

What is the volume of the figure below?

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.27.25 am

Possible Answers:

986in^3

$1\textup,246in^3$

784in^3

$1\textup,624in^3$

840in^3

Correct answer:

$1\textup,624in^3$

Explanation:

Screen shot 2015 12 22 at 11.27.05 am

21-7=14

Now that we have the dimensions of both our rectangular prisms, we can solve for the volumes.

Remember, the formula for volume is

$v=l\times w\times h$

$v=15\times8\times7$ and $v=7\times8\times14$

v=840in^3 and v=784in^3

Next, we add the volumes together to solve for the total volume of the original figure.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}840in^3\\ +\ 784in^3\end{array}}{ \ \space 1\textup,624in^3}$

Example Question #331 : Measurement & Data

Erica is going on a vacation. One of her suitcases has a volume of $13\textup { cubic feet}$ , and the other has a volume of $12\textup{ cubic feet}$ . What is the total volume of Erica's two suitcases?

Possible Answers:

25ft^3

26ft^3

29ft^3

27ft^3

28ft^3

Correct answer:

25ft^3

Explanation:

To solve this problem we simply need to remember that volume is additive. This means that we can add our two volumes together to find the combined, total volume.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}13ft^3\\ +\ 12ft^3\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space 25ft^3}$
