Jesse has a storage container in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The volume of the container is 43.875 cubic meters, the length is 5 meters and the width is 3.9 meters.

Answer :

Note: Consider we need to find the height of the container.

Given:

The volume of container in the shape of right rectangular prism = 43.875 cubic meters.

Length = 5 meters.

Width = 3.9 meters.

To find:

The height of the container.

Solution:

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is:

[tex]V=l\times w\times h[/tex]

Where, l is length, w is width and h is height.

Putting [tex]V=43.875,l=5,w=3.9[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]43.875=5\times 3.9\times h[/tex]

[tex]43.875=19.5\times h[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{43.875}{19.5}=h[/tex]

[tex]2.25=h[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the rectangular container is 2.25 meters.
