Answer:

w = 3 inches

Explanation:

Given that,

The volume of the candle, V = 99 cubic inches

Length, l = 11 inches

Breadth, b = 3 inches

We need to find the width of the candle. The candle is in the form of a cuboid. The volume of cuboidal shape is given by :


V=lwh

Put all the values,


w=(V)/(lb)\\\\w=(99)/(11* 3)\\\\w=3\ inches

So, the width of the mold is 3 inches.
