Question

6) A cereal box has the following dimensions:

height of 12 inches and width of 2 inches. If
the volume of the box is 192 cubic inches.
find the length of the box.
Hint: V = lwh

Answer 1

it is going to be 8 inches Hope it helps !!!!!

Answer 2

8 inches

Explanation:

The problem gives us a basic formula, the volume formula for a rectangular prism. All we have to do is use this formula, plug in all the values that are given, and solve for the unknown value.

`V = lwh`

`192 = l(12)(2)`

`192 = 24l`

From here, all we need to do is divide 24 from both sides of the equation, since what you do to one side of the equation you must do to the other!

`8 = l`

The length of the box will thus be 8 inches.
