Answer 1

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

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]

Given:
- Volume = 1,000
- Height = 10
- Length = 20

We can plug in the values into the formula:

\[
1,000 = 20 \times \text{width} \times 10
\]

Next, we can simplify the equation:

\[
1,000 = 200 \times \text{width}
\]

Divide both sides by 200:

\[
\text{width} = \frac{1,000}{200} = 5
\]

So, the width of the prism is **5**.
