Answer:

15

Explanation:

Equation to remember:

Length · Width · Height = Volume

LWH = V

-------------------------------------------------

In this word problem, you can find that we're missing the height aspect of the equation. Your equation would look something like this:


12 * 10 * h = 1800

-------------------------------------------------

Work:


12 * 10 * h = 1800\\\\120h = 1800\\\\(120h)/(120) = (1800)/(120)\\\\h = 15

-------------------------------

As you can see, the height of our rock is 15cm.

I hope this helped!

Sincerely,
