Joe is finding the length of a rectangular prism. The volume of the prism is 204 ft^3. The width is 3.5 ft, and the height is 5 ft. His work is shown below.
V=IWH
204=3.5(5)i
204=8.5i
204/8.5=8.5/8.5i
24=I
What error did Joe make?
A). He incorrectly substituted into the volume formula.
B). He added 3.5 and 5 when he should have multiplied them.
C). He incorrectly divided 204 by 8.5.
D). He did not make a mistake in finding the length of the prism.
