About this worksheet
Finding the Volume of 3D Shapes 2 advances students' understanding of volume calculation through diverse three-dimensional geometric figures. The material presents a comprehensive set of problems involving regular prisms, cylinders, spheres, and cones with varying dimensions and units of measurement. Students work with different measurement units (inches, centimeters, meters, yards) while applying appropriate volume formulas for each shape type.
This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Finding the Volume of 3D Shapes 2, progresses from basic rectangular prisms to more complex shapes including composite figures like L-shaped prisms and shapes with fractional dimensions. The worksheet culminates with a reflective question that encourages students to articulate their understanding of volume calculation methods. Each problem requires careful attention to units and proper application of volume formulas, helping students develop strong geometric reasoning skills.

Common Core standards covered
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.
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.
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.
Recognize volume as additive. Find volumes of solid figures composed of two non-overlapping right rectangular prisms by adding the volumes of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real world problems.
