To solve for the width \( w \) in the formula for the volume of a box \( V = lwh \), we can rearrange it as follows:
1. Start with \( V = lwh \).
2. To isolate \( w \), we divide both sides by \( lh \):
\[
w = \frac{V}{lh}
\]
When considering the units involved, we analyze the volume \( V \) which is in cubic inches (in³), and the product \( lh \) which is in square inches (in²).
The appropriate unit analysis shows:
\[
\frac{\text{in}^3}{\text{in}^2} = \text{in}
\]
Thus, the equation that best represents the remaining units after rearranging to solve for width is:
**Start Fraction in. cubed over in. squared End Fraction equals in.**
So the correct response is:
**Start Fraction in. cubed over in. squared End Fraction equals in.**
