Answer:

Length of the shipping carton is 11.5 meters.

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of the carton (V) = 948.75 cubic meters

Height of the carton (h) = 11 m

width of the carton (w) = 7.5 m

We need to find the the length of the carton (l).

Solution:

Now we know that;

Volume of the box is equal to length times width times height.

framing in equation form we get;


V= l* w* h


948.75 = l * 11 * 7.5\\\\948.75 =82.5l\\\\l =(948.75)/(82.5)\\\\l= 11.5\ m

Hence Length of the shipping carton is 11.5 meters.
