D. 24 cm

Answer 1

• Option (B) 30cm.

Step-by-Step Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of Rectangular Prism is 15,000cm³.

• Length (l) ➠ 20 cm
• Width (w) ➠ 25 cm

We know that,

★ Volume of Rectangular Prism = whl ★

Let "h" be the height.

➛ 25 × h × 20 = 15,000

➛ h × 20 × 25 = 15,000

➛ h × 500 = 15,000

➛ h = 15,000 ÷ 500

➛ h = 30

Thus, height of the box is 30 cm.
