Answer:
The area of the base is 15 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
33 3/4 = 33.75
2 1/4 = 2.25
To calculate the area base of a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:
a = area
v = volume = 33.75 in³
h = height = 2.25 in
v = a * h
we solve a
a = v / h
we replace the values that we know
a = 33.75 in³ / 2.25 in
a = 15 in²
The area of the base is 15 in²
