Question

a rectangular prism has a volume of 285.6 cubic feet.the prism is 12 ft long and 3.4 ft wide. what is the height of the prism?

Answer 1

Solution

             To  find  the  height  of  the  prism  

             Volume  of  Rectangular  prism  =   285.6 ft^3

             Length  of  Prism  =  12 ft

            Width  of  Prism  =  3.4  ft

            Volume  of  Rectangular  prism  =   l x b x h

             12  x  3.4  x  h  =  285.6

                    40.8  x h  =  285 .6

                               h =  285.6 / 40.8

                               h =  7  ft

               Hence , Height  of   the  rectangular  prism  = 7 ft
