Question

1. Priya's favorite kind of dark chocolate comes in a package shaped like a triangular. If the package can hold 144 cm of chocolate and the triangular faces have a base of 3 cm and a height of 4 cm, how tall is the entire package?

Answer 1

ok

Measures base = 3cm

height = 4cm

tall = x

volume = 144 cm^3

Volume = Area of the base * tall

Area of the base = (3 * 4) / 2 = 12/2 = 6 cm^2

144 = 6*x

x = 144/6

x = 24 cm

Result: The chocolate is 24 cm tall.
