Question

The formula v =bh means that the volume of a prism is equal to its base area times its height. Solve v= bh for b

Answer 1

Solve for b means isolate b:

V = bh
V/h = b

Answer:
b = V/h

Answer 2

Answer:

$b = \frac{v}{h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula v =bh means that the volume of a prism is equal to its base area times its height.

WE need to solve for b, we need to get 'b' alone

v=bh

to get 'b' alone we need to eliminate 'h'

To eliminate any variable we always do opposite operation.'

bh mean b times h

the opposite of multiplication is division

so to eliminate 'h' we divide by 'h' on both sides

$\frac{v}{h} = \frac{bh}{h}$

$b = \frac{v}{h}$
