Question

The volume of a prism is 40 cubic units. He also knows that the width of the prism is 2 units and the height is 5 units What is the length of the prism

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of the prism is 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of Prism (V) = 40 cubic units

width of the prism (w) = 2 units

height of the prism (h) = 5 units

we need to find the length of the prism (l).

Solution:

Now we know that;

Volume of prism is given by length time width times height.

Framing in equation form we get;

$V=l\times w \times h\\\\40 = l \times 2 \times 5\\\\40 =10l\\\\l=\frac{40}{10}\\\\l = 4\ units$

Hence Length of the prism is 4 units.
