Question

A shed has a rectangular floor and a flat roof with dimensions that are the same as those of the floor. The shed has a volume of 1500 cubic feet. If the floor dimensions are 10 feet by 12 feet, what is the height of the shed, h?

Answer 1

The height of the shed, h, is 12.5.

lwh = 1500
(12) x (10) x h = 1500
120 x h = 1500
(120 x h)/120 = 1500/120
h = 12.5

Hope this helps!
