Do you remember the formulas for volume of a rectangular prism?

5in

Practice makes perfect

We are given the following rectangular prism and we want to find its height.

The volume of a rectangular prism with l length, w width, and h height can be calculated using the formula below. V=l wh We have been given that l= 5in, w= 5 in, and V, so we have enough information to calculate the value of h.

V=l wh
