The volume of a box is 10,000cm^3. the base of the box is 25 cm and 10 cm. how tall is the box?

h = 40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the volume of a rectangular box of width w, height h and depth d is V = w·h·d (the order in which you write these doesn't matter).

We want to find out how tall this box is.  Thus, we solve V = w·h·d for h:

            V

h =

          w·d

Here, h = vertical measurement of box = ( 10000 cm³) / [ (25 cm)(10 cm) ], or

h = 40 cm
