Start with the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism of Length, L, width, W, and depth, d.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"V+=+L%2AW%2Ad\"$ Substitute V = 8 cu.ft., W =2 ft., d = 0.8 ft.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"8+=+L%2A%282%29%2A%280.8%29\"$ Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"8+=+L%2A%281.6%29\"$ Divide both sides by 1.6
\n" ); document.write( " $\"8%2F1.6+=+L\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28L+=+5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The garden is 5 feet long.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
