Question

The formula for the volume V of a rectangular prism is V = ℓwh, where ℓ represents the length, w represents the width, and h represents the height. Rearrange the quantities in this formula to give a new formula for the width of the rectangular prism.

Answer 1

w =
`(V)/(lh)`

Explanation:

We can find the formula for the width by isolating w:

V = lwh

Divide each side by lh to isolate w:

`(V)/(lh)` = w
