Volume word problems with fractions and decimals

The topic  is a topic under the 6th Grade Math Mission. This exercise uses word problems to practice the idea of volume.

Types of Problems
There are two types of problems in this exercise:


 * 1) Solve the problem described: This problem describes a situation that involves a volume of a rectangular prism. The student is expected to analyze the word problem, find the correct solution, and enter it in the space provided.Vwpwf1.png
 * 2) Solve the problem and answer the question: This problem describes a situation and has a question related to the word problem. The student is asked to solve the problem, and after doing so correctly they are to select the correct answer to a yes or no question.Vwpwf2.png

Strategies
Knowledge of the rectangular prism volume formula and confidence with reading mathematical situations are necessary to complete this exercise.
 * 1) The specific problem recycle at a fast pace, so for speed it is possible to keep track of the answers to questions that will come up later.
 * 2) The answer to the "related question" is obvious if the problem is performed correctly, so concentration should be on reading the problem and solving it carefully.
