Question

A rectangular prism is shown below.A formula for the volume of a rectangular prism V = Bh. The volume, V, of this prism is 600 cm³. Which expression can be used to find x, the width of the prism in centimeters? A: 600/15B: 600/8C: 600/(8)(15)D: (8)(8)(15)(15)/600

Answer 1

Volume of a rectangular prism = base length x width x heigth

Where;

Volume = 600 cm3

base length = 15

width = x

height = 8

Replacing:

600 = (15) (x) (8)

Isolate x

600/ (15)(8) = x

x = 600/ (8)(15)
