Final answer:

Unable to determine the width of the box as crucial information about the length and height of the box is not provided; only the volume is known.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking to find the width of a box given the volume is 600 cubic inches but does not provide the other dimensions (length and height) that are necessary to determine the width. Typically, the volume of a rectangular box can be found using the formula volume = length x width x height. Without the length and height, it is not possible to accurately determine the width with the information provided. One would need at least one more dimension to solve for the third dimension if the volume is known.To find the width of the box, we need to know the volume of the box and the dimensions of its length and height. The formula for the volume of a rectangular box is V = length × width × height. Given that the volume is 600 cubic inches, let's substitute that into the formula and solve for the width.

600 = length × width × height

Since we don't have the length or height, we can't solve for the width with the given information.
