If the height and volume of the prism are 6 inches and 30 cubic inches. Then the base area of the prism is 5 square inches.
What is a rectangular prism?
A rectangular prism is a closed solid that has two parallel rectangular bases connected by a rectangle surface.
The volume of a right rectangular prism is found by multiplying the length of the base by the width of the base by the height of the prism.
A right rectangular prism has a volume of 30 cubic inches.
If the height of the prism is 6 inches. Then the base area of the prism will be
The volume is given as
Volume = Base area × Height
We know
Volume = 30
Height = 6
Then the base area will be
30 = Area × 6
Area = 5
