The volume of the prism shaped fish tank is: 408 in.³.

What is the Volume of a Prism?

Volume of prism = base area × height of prism.

The fish tank is a prism having a height of 8 inches. To find its volume, find the base area, which is the area of the composite figrue given.

Thus:

Base area = area of rectangle + area of triangle = (length × width) + (1/2(base × height).

Given:

  • Length = 7 in.
  • Width = 6 in.
  • Base = 6 - 3 = 3 in.
  • Height = 13 - 7 = 6 in.

Therefore:

Base area = (7 × 6) + 1/2(3 × 6)

Base area = 51 in.²

Volume of the prism shaped fish tank = 51 × 8 = 408 in.³.
