Answer: 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The volume of a box = 200 cubic inches

The length of the box = 8 inches

The width of the box= $2\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}$ inches

We know that the volume of rectangular prism is given by :-

$\text{Volume}=length*width*height$

Let h be the height of the box.

Then, we have

$200=8\times\frac{5}{2}\times h\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\frac{200}{4\times5}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=10\ inches$

Hence, the height of the box = 10 inches.
