H- L×W×H
H- 8×4×H
H- 8×4h
H- 8÷4 and 4÷4
H- 2+4=6
So 6×8×4=192
The height is 6 Hope I explained well enough for you to understand

Hi there! :)
The volume of a prism is (length)(height)(width). We already know the length and width, so we can let the height be h, and set up an equation as follows:
(4)(8)(h) = 192;
32h = 192;
Dividing by 32 on both sides, we get that the height is 6 inches.
