Question

Find the height of a cuboid whose volume is 275 cm3 and base area is 25 cm2

Answer 1

Volume of a cuboid = length*breadth*height
275 = 25 * height
since the base area = length*breadth
Thus,
Height = 275/25
Height of the given cuboid is 11 cm.

Answer 2

Given:

The volume of a cuboid is 275 cm3 and the base area is 25 cm2.

To find:

The height of a cuboid.

Solution:

The height of a cuboid is 11 cm.

To answer this question, we will follow the following steps:

First of all, we should know that the volume of a cuboid having length 'l', breadth 'b' and height 'h' is given by using the formula:

$l \times b \times h$

or

Base area × height

Now,

As given in the question, we have,

The volume of a cuboid

$= 275 \: {cm}^{3}$

The base area of cuboid or length × breadth

$= 25 \: {cm}^{2}$

So,

$25 \times h = 275$

$h = \frac{275}{25}$

$h = 11 \: cm$

Hence, the height of the given cuboid is 11 cm.
