A sports equipment warehouse stores rectangular prisms of cricket bats. Each bat is packed in a box shaped like a rectangular prism with a base area of 93/25 square centimetres and a height of 25 centimetres.

Using the formula for the volume of a prism, V = (area of base) × (height), calculate the exact volume of one bat box in cubic centimetres. Express your answer as a simplified fraction.

Worked solution

  1. The base area of the rectangular prism box is given as 93/25 cm².
  2. The height of the box is given as 25 cm.
  3. The formula for the volume of a prism is V = (area of base) × (height).
  4. Substitute the given values into the formula: V = (93/25) × 25.
  5. Simplify the expression: (93/25) × 25 = 93 × (25/25) = 93 × 1.
  6. Multiply: 93 × 1 = 93.
  7. The volume is 93 cubic centimetres.
  8. The result is already a whole number, so as a simplified fraction it is 93/1.
  9. Check: 93/25 × 25 = 93, which confirms the calculation.
  10. The volume of one bat box is 93 cm³.

Reference answer: 93 cm³
