What is the height of a right rectangular prism with a length of 2 cm, a width of 10 cm, and a volume of 75 cm3 ? Write your answer in decimal form
The volume of a right rectangular prism is given by the formula V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given:
Length (l) = 2 cm
Width (w) = 10 cm
Volume (V) = 75 cm3
Using the formula V = lwh, we can rearrange it to solve for the height (h):
h = V / lw
Plugging in the values:
h = 75 / (2*10)
h = 75 / 20
h = 3.75
Therefore, the height of the right rectangular prism is 3.75 cm.
