About the Volume of Rectangular Prisms with Fractional Edges Worksheet

Volume of Rectangular Prisms with Fractional Edges introduces students to advanced volume calculations involving mixed numbers and fractions as edge measurements. The material presents nine carefully structured problems where students must calculate the volume of rectangular prisms using fractional cube measurements. Each problem requires students to multiply three fractional measurements to determine the total volume in cubic units, building their understanding of how fractional edge lengths affect three-dimensional space.

This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Volume of Rectangular Prisms with Fractional Edges, concludes with a critical thinking question that asks students to explain their calculation process. Through progressive problem-solving, students develop their ability to work with mixed numbers and fractions in geometric contexts. The worksheet's structured format helps students organize their work while strengthening their understanding of volume calculation with non-whole number measurements.

Common Core Standards Covered

5.MD.C.5
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.
5.MD.C.5.a
Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole-number side lengths by packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to represent the associative property of multiplication.
5.MD.C.5.b
Apply the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h for rectangular prisms to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with whole-number edge lengths in the context of solving real world and mathematical problems.
