Question

Use the division property of equality to rearrange the equation V = lwh for the quantity of interest h.
A. h = lw/V
B. w = V - lh
C. h = V/l - w
D. h = V/lw

Answer 1

To rearrange the equation \( V = lwh \) for the quantity of interest \( h \), we can use the division property of equality.

Starting with the original equation:
\[
V = lwh
\]

To solve for \( h \), we can divide both sides by \( lw \):
\[
h = \frac{V}{lw}
\]

Thus, the correct rearrangement for \( h \) is:
\[
h = \frac{V}{lw}
\]

The correct answer is:
**D. h = V/lw**
