Question

A piece of wood has a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm. Its volume is 100 cm? What is the length of the wood?

10,000 cm

2 cm

515 cm

50 cm

Answer 1

2 cm

Explanation:

write out equation for volume for a Rectangular prism and plug in the numbers you have. Multiply the Width and Height and divide the volume with the product of Width X Height

Answer 2

The length of a piece of wood is 2 cm.

Given:

volume = 100 cm³

width = 5 cm

height = 10 cm

length = ?

Volume is computed by multiplying the length, width, and height of an object.

Volume = length * width * height

100 cm³ = length * 5 cm * 10 cm

100 cm³ = length * 50 cm²

100 cm³ / 50 cm² = length

2 cm = length

to check:

100 cm³ = 2 cm * 5 cm * 10 cm

100 cm³ = 10 cm² * 10 cm

100 cm³ = 100 cm³
