Question

The volume of a cereal box is 264 in3 . If it has a width equal to 3 inches and length of 8 inches, what is the height?

Answer 1

Volume of the box = LWH.

Let V = 264

264 = (8)(3)(H)

264 = 24H

264 ÷ 24 = H

11 = H

The height of the box is 11 inches.

Answer 2

11 inches

Explanation:

Volume of a box is:

`l * w * h`

`8 * 3 * h = 264\\\\24*h=264\\\\(24*h=264)/(24) \\\\\boxed{h=11}`

The height is 11 inches.

Hope this helps.
