First, we need to convert the width from millimeters to centimeters since the other measurements are given in centimeters. We know that 1 cm is equal to 10 mm, so:

Width = 80 mm ÷ 10 = 8 cm

The formula for the volume of a cuboid is:

Volume = Length x Width x Height

Substituting the given values, we have:

720 = 6 x 8 x Height

Simplifying, we get:

720 = 48 x Height

Dividing both sides by 48, we have:

Height = 720 ÷ 48 = 15

Therefore, the height of the cuboid is 15 cm.
