Answer:  The area of the base of the prism 3 ft2

,the volume of the prism is 18 ft3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to apply the formulas:

Volume of a prism (V) = base area x height

Base area (A) = length x width

Replacing with the values given:

A = 3 x 1 = 3 ft2

Back with the volume formula:

V = base area x height = 3 x 6 = 18 ft3

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
