Question 1027507: A shipping carton in the shape of a rectangular prism has a volume of 756 cubic inches. the base area of the shipping carton is 42 square inches. What is the height of the shipping carton? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
Volume of a rectangular prism
= length x width x height
length x width = base area = 42 ins^2.
Volume = base area x height
756 = 42 x height
Height = 756/42
Height = 18 ins.
Hope this helps :-)
