The volume of a rectangular is 47.25cm cubic. If it is cm long and 3.5cm wide. What is its depth
We can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism to solve for the depth:
V = lwh
Where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height (or depth).
We are given that the length is 9 cm, the width is 3.5 cm, and the volume is 47.25 cubic cm. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
47.25 = (9)(3.5)(h)
Simplifying the right-hand side, we get:
47.25 = 31.5h
Dividing both sides by 31.5, we get:
h = 1.5
Therefore, the depth of the rectangular prism is 1.5 cm
