Find the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped whose dimensions are 5/6, 2/5 and 1 whole 1/2.

In order to find the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped, it is necessary to multiply its measurements by each other. Since it is necessary to multiply ordinary fractions, we first translate the whole parts of the fractions into fractions, for this we multiply the whole part by the denominator of the fraction and add the result to the numerator.

1 1/2 = 3/2.

To multiply ordinary fractions, you must multiply their numerators and denominators.

V = 5/6 * 2/5 * 3/2 = 30/60 = 1/2.

Answer: the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped is 1/2.
