Long · Answer 1

400 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a prism

= base area * height

= (40 * 5) * 2

Volume = 200 * 2

This prism is a cuboid

Volume of a cuboid

= length * breadth * height

Volume = 40 * 5 * 2

Hanson · Answer 2

400

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Length x Width x Height = Volume

All you need to do is plug it in so it would be 40 x 5 x 2

and that would give you 400 cm for your volume
