Find the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped whose edges are equal to 2 cm 5 m and 10 dm

The volume of a rectangular parallelepiped is equal to the product of its three dimensions – length, width and height.

V = a • b • c.

By the condition of the problem, a = 2 cm; b = 5 m; c = 10 dm.

Let’s convert centimeters and meters to decimeters:

2 cm = 0.2 dm.; 5 m = 50 dm.

Let’s find the volume of the parallelepiped:

V = 0.2 * 50 * 10 = 100 (dm3.).

Answer: the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped is 100 dm3.
