About 5.MD.C.5

Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.

5.MD.C.5.A
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.

5.MD.C.5.B
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. 0

5.MD.C.5.C
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.

Worksheet: Fifth Grade

Volume of Prisms - I


Work with 3-d shapes and find volume. In this worksheet, you will find the volume of rectangular prisms using the lengths of the sides.

Core Standard: 5.MD.C.5


Worksheet: Fifth Grade

Volume of Prisms - II


More practice problems to find the volume of rectangular or square prisms. Does the unit of volume different than the unit of area or length?

Core Standard: 5.MD.C.5


Worksheet: Fifth Grade

Find Volume - I


Find the volumes of cubes and rectangular prisms if the length of side/s is/are provided. Work in reverse to find the side length if the volume of cube is stated in a problem.
