--------------------------------------------------------------------
The length of rectangular box with a fixed height varies directly as the volume and
inversely as the width. If the length is 15 cm when the volume is l260cm^3 and the width is 8 cm,
--------------------------------------------------------------------
L, length
k, variation constant
w, width
v, volume

----------------------------------------------------
find the length when the volume is 840+cm%5E3 and the width is 5 cm.
----------------------------------------------------
Just substitute the values and evaluate L.
