Farmer Dave builds a crate to hold vegetables. The volume of the crate is 48 cubic feet. The base area of the crate is 16 square feet. What is the height of the crate?
? feet.
To find the height of the crate, we can use the formula for volume of a rectangular prism:
Volume = Base area x Height
Given:
Volume = 48 cubic feet
Base area = 16 square feet
48 = 16h
h = 48/16
h = 3
Therefore, the height of the crate is 3 feet.
