A fish tank in the shape of a right rectangular prism has a volume of 1920 in.³. What is the width of the tank if the height is 12 inches and the length is 20 inches

1 answer

To find the width of the tank, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

Volume = length × width × height

Substituting the given values:

1920 in.³ = 20 in. × width × 12 in.

Simplifying:

1920 in.³ = 240 in. × width

Dividing both sides by 240 in.:

8 in. = width

Therefore, the width of the tank is 8 inches.
