The volume of a right rectangular prism is 1000 the highest 10 and the length is 20. What is the width?
To find the width of the right rectangular prism, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
The volume is given as 1000 cubic units, the length is given as 20 units, and the height is given as 10 units. Plugging these values into the formula, we have:
1000 = 20 x Width x 10
To isolate the width, we can divide both sides of the equation by 20 x 10:
1000 / (20 x 10) = Width
Simplifying the right-hand side gives:
1000 / 200 = Width
Calculating the right-hand side, we find:
5 = Width
Therefore, the width of the right rectangular prism is 5 units.
