Question 374104
A rectangular solid has a base with length 3 cm and width 8 cm. If the volume of the solid is 216 cm3, find the height of the solid. (Hint: The volume of a rectangular solid is given by V = LWH.)
Sol'n:
 V = lwh, l = 3-cm, w = 8-cm, V = 216-cm^3, h = ?
 h = V/lw
 h = 216 cm^3/ (3x8)cm^2
 h = 9-cm ---answer
