Question

Sarah received a gift in a rectangular box with a volume of 240 in3. If the base of the box was 20 in2, how tall was the box? A) 2 inches B) 10 inches C) 12 inches D) 15 inches

Answer 1

Answer the box was 12 in bc 20x240divided by 4 =12

Answer 2

12 inches

Explanation:

volume = length * width * height

volume = (length * width) * height

volume = (area of base) * height

height = volume/(area of base)

height = (240 in^3)/(20 in^2) = 12 in
