    Carlos is cleaning out his fish tank, so he filled the bathtub to the rim with water for his fish to swim in while he empties their tank. If the bathtub is 5.5 feet long, 3.3 feet wide, and 2.2 feet deep, how many cubic feet of water can it hold?
    ::Carlos正在清理他的鱼缸,所以他把浴缸装满了水,让鱼在水池里游泳。 如果浴缸长5.5英尺,宽3.3英尺,深2.2英尺,它能支撑多少立方英尺的水?

    In this concept, you will learn to calculate the of different prisms.

    The volume of a is the measure of how much three-dimensional space it takes up, or holds. Imagine an aquarium. Its length, width, and height determine how much water the tank will hold. If you fill it with water, the amount of water tells the volume of the tank. Volume is measured in cubic units , because you are multiplying three dimensions : length, width, and height.
    ::a 的体积是测量它吸收或持有的三维空间的大小。 想象一个水族馆。 水族馆的长度、 宽度和高度决定着储水罐的储水量。 如果您用水填充水, 水量会显示储水罐的体积。 量用立方体单位测量, 因为量是乘以三个维度: 长度、 宽度和高度。

    There are several different ways that you can calculate volume. The first way that you are going to explore is by looking at how you can calculate volume using unit cubes.
    ::您可以用几种不同的方法来计算体积。 您要探索的第一种方式是查看如何使用单位立方体来计算体积。

    Unit cubes are singular cubes used to represent one unit. When you “fill up” a solid figure with unit cubes, you can see the unit cubes lining up the figure. Then you can count or calculate the number of unit cubes in the solid. The number of unit cubes in the solid figure is the volume of the figure. Let’s examine what this would look like in the following prism .
    ::单位立方体是用于代表一个单位的单立方体。当用单位立方体“填充”一个固态的立方体时,您可以看到单位立方体排列图。然后,您可以计算或计算固体中的单位立方体数量。固方体中的单位立方体数量是图的体积。让我们看看在下面的棱柱中会是什么样子。

    Now you can see that this prism holds unit cubes. It has three unit cubes lined up for the length, it has two unit cubes along the side for the width and it has four unit cubes lined up for the height. If you count all of these unit cubes, then you can see that you have 24 unit cubes.
    ::现在你可以看到,这个棱晶具有单位立方体。它有三个单位立方体的长度排队,它的侧面有两个单位立方体的宽度,它有四个单位立方体的高度排队。如果你将所有这些单位立方体都计算在内,那么你可以看到有24个单位立方体。

    You would write your answer for volume as 24 cubic units. Notice that you use cubic units because you have length times width times height.
    ::您会以 24 立方单位 写入音量的回答 。 请注意, 您使用立方单位, 因为宽度乘以高度 。

    The formula for volume is a simplified version of the method above. As you saw, you used length and width to find the number of unit cubes in the first layer of the figure - this is the same as finding the area of its base.
    ::音量公式是以上方法的简化版本。 正如您所看到的, 您使用长度和宽度来查找图中第一个层的单位立方体数量, 这与查找其基数区域相同 。

    Let’s see how this works.
    ::让我们看看这如何运作。

    In this case, the base of the prism is a rectangle . You can use the area formula for to find the area of the base: A = l w . This is the same as counting the number of unit cubes in each row and the number of rows. Once you find the area, you simply multiply it by the height to add the rest of the layers.
    ::在这种情况下,棱晶的底部是一个矩形。您可以使用区域公式来查找底部的区域: A=lw。这与计算每行的单位立方体数和行数相同。一旦找到区域,您只需将区域乘以高度即可添加其余的层。

    The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is: V = B × h .
    ::矩形棱柱体积的公式为:V=Bxh。

    B  represents the base area of the prism. Remember, a prism can have a base in the shape of any polygon . Therefore, the formula you need to use to find the area of the base will change. But the process stays the same: you find the area of the face that is the base and then multiply this by the height of the prism. Remember, you will need to figure out the area of the base and then multiply it by the height to figure out the volume.
    ::B 代表棱柱的基础区域 。 记住, 棱柱可以以任何多边形的形状为基。 因此, 找到基点区域的公式将会改变 。 但进程保持不变 : 找到基点的面部区域, 然后乘以棱柱的高度 。 记住, 您需要找出基点的面积, 然后乘以高度来计算音量 。

    Let’s look at an example.
    ::让我们举个例子。

    Find the volume of the prism below.

    V = B × h V = 144 × 4 V = 576

    The answer is 576.
    ::答案是576。

    The volume of the prism is 576   c m 3 .
    ::棱晶体积为576厘米3。

    Note: All volume is measured in cubic units, so you will need to use this exponent when working on figuring out the volume of a solid.
    ::注:所有体积均以立方单位计量,因此,在计算固体体积时,您需要使用此指数。

    If you know the volume and the area of the base of a prism, then you can figure out the missing height dimension of the prism.
    ::如果你知道棱镜底部的体积和面积, 那么你就可以找出棱镜缺失的高度维度。

    Let’s look at an example.
