Answer:
The width of the base = the volume ÷ (length × height)
w = V/lh
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets take about how to re-arrange any formula
- The formula of the volume of the rectangular prism is:
V = lwh, where l is the length of the base , w is the width of the
base and h is the height of the prism
- To find the formula of the width from the formula of the volume,
we must isolate the width in one side and all other dimensions in
other side
∵ V = lwh ⇒ divide both sides by l and h
∵ V/(lh) = (lwh)/(lh) ⇒ cancel lh up with lh down
∴ V/(lh) = w
∴ w = V/(lh)
∴ w = V ÷ (lh)
* The width of the base = the volume ÷ (length × height)
Answer:
Width=[tex]\frac{Volume}{(Length)*(height)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You only have to clear the start of the formula:
V=L*W*H
Since lenght and height are multiplying the width of the base you have to clear them and take them to the other side of the equation dividing:
[tex]\frac{V}{l*h}[/tex]
So you can calculate the width of the base by dividing the volume between the product of the Height times the length.
