Answer:

The height of the container is 24cm

Explanation:

To calculate the height of a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:

v = volume = 62400cm³

w = width = 40cm

l = length = 65cm

h = height

v = w * h * l

we replace the values that ​​we know

62400cm³ = 40cm * 65cm * h

62400cm³ = 2600cm² * h

62400cm³ / 2600cm² = h

24cm = h

The height of the rectangular prism is 24cm
