Volume of a Rectangular Prism - Count Blocks (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on determining the volume of rectangular prisms by counting the number of blocks they are composed of. It is designed for beginners, providing a practical approach to understanding volume through visualization in 3D shapes. Each question presents a different rectangular prism with specified dimensions, and students must choose the correct volume from a list of multiple-choice answers. This forms part of an introductory unit on the volume of 3D shapes within geometry. Additionally, visuals are provided for each question to aid in visual counting and dimension comprehension.
