Hakeem is building a box in the shape of a right rectangular prism to store his toys. It has a volume of 162,000 cm³. What is the width of the box if the height is 40 cm and the length is 90 cm
The volume of a right rectangular prism is given by the formula V = l * w * h, where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
In this case, the volume is 162,000 cm³, the length is 90 cm, and the height is 40 cm.
162,000 cm³ = 90 cm * w * 40 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by 90 cm * 40 cm, we get:
w = 162,000 cm³ / (90 cm * 40 cm)
w = 45 cm
Therefore, the width of the box is 45 cm.
