M4ME-IVd-62
 Visualizes the volume of solid figures using standard units. M4ME-IVd-62
 Finds the volume of a rectangular prism using cu. cm. and cu. M4ME-IVe-64
At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:

 visualize the volume of a solid using standard units; and
 find the volume of a rectangular prism.
Lesson Visualizing the Volume of a Solid Using Non-

1 Standard Units
What is it
Explore and Discover!
Study the situation:
Miko and Carlo wanted to find the volume of an empty box.
First, they filled the box with balls.

Around 54 balls filled the box.
about 54 balls
Next, they filled the box with marbles.
Around 285 marbles filled the box.
Then, they filled the box with beans. about 285 marbles
Around 740 beans filled the box.
about 740 beans
Did Miko and Carlo get the same number
of units for the volume of the box? Why?
Non-standard units do not give the same measure of volume for the
same container. Balls, marbles, and beans are used as non-standard units for
measuring the volume of a box.
Try to remember the following:
 Volume is the amount of space a solid figure occupies.

 A solid figure is a three-dimensional shape.
 No-standard units can be used to measure volume.
 When a non-standard unit used is small, more units are needed
to fill a container. When the non-standard unit used is bigger,
fewer units are needed to fill the container.
 Non-standard units do not give a consistent and accurate
measurement of the volume of a container.
What’s More
Direction: Get boxes like those below. Visualize the volume. Estimate how many
marbles will fill each box. Then, find the actual number of marbles that
will fill each box. (use marbles or any non-standard units with the same
size.) write your answer on the answer sheet provided.

1cm
The figure at the right contains 27 cubes.

Its volume is 27 cubic cm or 27 cm3
Let us study the following solid figures.
1 cubic unit
2 cubic units
4 cubic units
The volume of the box above is 4 cubic units.
If 1 cubic unit is equal to 1 cubic cm, then the volume is 4 cubic cm or 4 cm3.
A cubic centimeter (cm3) is a standard unit for measuring volume. A cubic meter
(m 3 ¿ is another one.
What’s More
Direction: Find the volume of each solid figure, by counting the
number of cubes.
Write the answer in your answer sheet.
Use 1 cube = 1 cubic cm

Lesson Finding the Volume of a Rectangular Prism

3
What is it
A rectangular prism is a solid figure that has six faces, twelve edges and
eight vertices. Vertex ( vertices in plural form ) is the corner of a shape. Edge is a
segment where two faces of a prim meet. Some rectangular prisms have faces that are
shaped like rectangles and squares.
A cube also has six faces, twelve edges, and eight vertices. Each face is shaped like
a square with equal lengths of sides.
height
width
length
How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism?
 Use V = l x w x h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height

of the rectangular prism.
 Use V = s3 to find the volume of a cube, where s is the edge of the cube.
 Volume is measured in cubic units, such as cubic centimeters ( cm3 ¿,
cubic meters (m¿¿ 3)¿, and cubic (mm¿ ¿3) ¿,
Example: Let’s find the volume of the rectangular prism below.
V=lxwxh
=4x2x3
= 24 cubic units
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular
prism is 24 cubic units.
Study another example. Below is a cube. Let’s find its volume
3 rows of 3 cubes
9 cubes in all
3 layers of 3 rows of 3 cubes
