The volume of the crate 3240ft. The area of the base of the dog crate is 216ft. What is the height of the dog crate in feet? RE&DECEDENOUA

Answer 1

15

1) Gathering the data

Crate as a rectangular prism

Volume: 3240 ft³

Ab =216 ft²

Height=?

2) As the general way to find out the Volume of a prism is given by:

$\begin{gathered} V\text{ =Ab }\cdot\text{ h} \\ \end{gathered}$

We can plug into that the following data:

$\begin{gathered} 3240=\text{ 216 .h} \\ \frac{3240}{216}=\frac{216}{216}h \\ h\text{ =15} \end{gathered}$

3) Hence, the height of the crate is 15 feet.
