Concept

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is given below:


\begin{gathered} \text{The volume of a rectangular prism = Length x Width x Height} \\ =\text{ L x W x H} \end{gathered}

Next,

Given data

Volume V = 2500

Lenght L = 25

Width W = ?

Height H = 5

Next, apply the volume of a rectangular prism formula to find the width.


\begin{gathered} V\text{ = L X W X B} \\ 2500\text{ = 25 x W x 5} \\ 2500\text{ = 125W} \end{gathered}

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 125 to find the value of W.

Final answer


\begin{gathered} (125W)/(125)\text{ = }(2500)/(125) \\ W\text{ = 20m} \end{gathered}
