Formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: V = length x width x height

120 = l x 4 x 15

120 = l x 60

l = 2

The length of the rectangular prism is 2 feet.

Hope this helps!! :)

Volume = length x width x height

120 = 15 x 4 x length

Simplify:

120 = 60 x length

Divide both sides by 60:

Length = 2 feet
