The formula for volume is V=l*w*h

So we can plug in what we have and solve for h
576=12*8*x
576=96x
x=6 inches

Hope this helps

Answer: 6 inches

Explanation:

Given: The volume of a box = 576 cubic inches

The length of the box = 12 inches

The width = 8 inches

We know that the volume of cuboidal box is given by :-


\text{Volume}=length*width*height

Let h be the height of the box.

Then, we have


576=12*8*h\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=(576)/(96)\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=6

Hence, the height of the box = 6 inches.
