Question

The volumes of both containers are 6,912 cubic inches.

What is the height of container 2?
Set up an equation using the width and height from con-
tainer 2 to find the missing height.
V = lwh
Container 1
32 in.
12 in.
18 in.
Container 2
24 in.
? in.
16 in.

Answer 1

let the height of second container be x

Then volume=6912

we know that volume of cuboid= lbh

so ，

24.x.16=6912

384.x=6912

x =6912divide 384

therefore x =18 that is the height of the container
