Volume is the number of cubic within a space. What is the total number of cubic units in this shape? How did you figure it out?

8x2=16 and 16x4=64
ReplyDeleteWhy did you choose to multiply 8x2 first?
DeleteCan you tell us the dimensions of the shape?
DeleteI think it will be 64 cubic units because I did length times width and then i got 16 and then i added it 4 times for height and got 64-Joshlyn
ReplyDeletei agree
DeleteI did 8x2 and i got 16 than i did 16x4 and i got 64
Deletejoel duke
I did length x width which is 8 x 2 to find the base which is 16. Then I found the height which was 4 and did 16 x 4 = 64. The volume is 64.
ReplyDeleteHunter Reed
i agree
DeleteI forgot to put cubic units. The volume is 64 cubic units.
Deletei agree
Deletei agree with you because i found the exacted same length and width
Delete8 times 2 =16 and then 16 times 4 =64 because 16+16+16+16=64 because 16+16=32 and 16 +16=32and 32+32=64
ReplyDeletei found my base by doing L(8) x w(2)=16 16 x 4 layers= 64 cu. units
ReplyDeletei agree
ReplyDeletei found the of L=8x w=2 16x4=64
ReplyDeletemarissa
I found my answer by multiplying the b=LXW. So 8x2=16 16=16=16=16=64 or 16+16=32 32+32=64
ReplyDelete8x2=16 16x4=64 that is my answer
ReplyDeleteL=8 W=2 8x2=16 H=4
ReplyDeleteB=16
Decompose the 16. 16
................................../\
10 6
10 x 4 = 40
6 x 4 = 24
40 + 24 = 64
The volume is 64 cubic units.

I like how you decomposed the 16 to make it easier to multiply! Great strategy.
DeleteI think the volume is 64 cubic units. I got this by do 2 x 8=16 and then I did 16 x 4=64. Michael Huskey posted this.
ReplyDeletei got 64 because i added 2 times 8 and got 16 and added 16 times 4 and i got 64 is that right
ReplyDeletethat is correct because i wrote out 4 16 times and i got the same exact answer as you
DeleteHeight: 4
ReplyDeleteLength: 8
Width: 2
8 x 2 = 16
16 x 4 = 64
Volume is 64 cubic units

I agree with you because you did all the things you need to do to get the volume of the shape.
DeleteI think it is 64 because the width was 8 and the length was 2 then i multiplied them and then i was finding the height.The height is 4 and i added 16 because that equals 8 times 2 so i added 16 4 times and it equaled 64. This is JACKIE MANCINI Who wrote this. Please ask question or say if you agree or disagree. THANKYOU!!
ReplyDeleteI agree on the way you did 8 times 2 and the 16 times 4.
Deletesincerely Madison
Great job Jackie! Multiplying the the length and width was a great first step. What were you trying to find when you decided to multiply the length and width first?
Deletei got 64 because i got 16 cubic units for the base and then i multiplied 16 times the height which was 4 and i got 64 cubic units.
ReplyDeleteGianna licalzi
i got 64 because 16x4=64
ReplyDeleteGrayson
8=l 2=w h=4
ReplyDelete8x2x4 2x4=8 8x8=64 64in3
Dj made this
I got 64 cubic units because i did 16 times 4 to get 64
ReplyDelete8x2=16
ReplyDelete16x4=64
Erick LLoyd Young
8 times 2 = 16 so u are supposed to add 16 4 times because u get the 4 from the hight cause the hight is 4 so u add 16 4 times and thats how i got 64
ReplyDeleteI got 50 cubic units because I did 16 X 3 and I go 50.
ReplyDeletethat is what i did at first but i got 48 but i for got the one i could not see so i did 4 x 16 in stead of 3 x 16
DeleteGood advice. The base counts as part of the height, then there are 3 more cubes added on. What would the total height be? By the way, how did you come up with 16? You are on the right track!
DeleteI think it's 64 because if you do length times width you get 32 then you do 32 times 2 and get 64
ReplyDeletei did base x height the base was 16 and the height was 4 so 16 x 4 = 64
ReplyDelete8times2=16 so u get the 4 from the hight and get 16 and add 16 4 times and u get 64. shelby hardesty
ReplyDeleteL:8 x W:2 = B:16 x H:4 = V:64
ReplyDeleteKey: L=length W: whith B:Base H: height V: volume
Fiona
i think it is 64 because the base is 16 and the height is 4 so times 16 times 4 = 64 LL
ReplyDeletei think mrs.harris is right
ReplyDeleteI think you should explain more why is Mrs.Harris right?!?
DeleteYou should explain more why Mrs Harris is right using numbers
DeleteI think Mrs.Harris is correct because I did 4x3=12. Then I did 12/6=2, and they I did 2+8=10. Michael and Gavyn
ReplyDeleteI think Mrs. Harris is right because I did 4x3=12. Then I did 12/6=2. Last I did 2+8=10
