To find the width, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: V = Length x Width x Height.
We know that the volume (V) is 1,000, the height (H) is 10, and the length (L) is 20.
Therefore, 1,000 = 20 x Width x 10.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 200 gives us:
1,000 ÷ 200 = 20 x Width x 10 ÷ 200
5 = Width x 10 ÷ 200
Simplifying further:
5 = Width ÷ 20
Multiplying both sides by 20 gives us:
5 x 20 = Width ÷ 20 x 20
100 = Width
Therefore, the width of the right rectangular prism is 100.
The volume of a right rectangular prism is 1,000, the height is 10, and the length is 20. What is the width?
