Question

he volume of this rectangular prism is 936 cubic millimeters. What is the value of z?

Answer 1

The formula for the volume(V) of the rectangular prism is,

$V=L\times W\times H$

Where,

$\begin{gathered} L=length=13mm \\ W=width=z \\ H=height=8mm \\ V=936mm^3 \end{gathered}$

Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} 936=13\times z\times8 \\ \frac{936}{13\times8}=z \\ 9=z \\ \Rightarrow z=9mm \end{gathered}$

Hence,

$z=9mm$
