Calculate the volume of the prism by first finding the total number of half-unit cubes that will fill it. There are 8 half-unit cubes in every unit cube. 1 1/2 1 1/2 1 A. Number of half-unit cubes = 18 V = 9 cubic units B. Number of half-unit cubes = 9 V = 4 1/2 cubic units C. Number of half-unit cubes = 9 V = 2 1/4 cubic units D. Number of half-unit cubes = 18 V = 2 1/4 cubic units
