To find the width of the cabinet using the volume formula \( V = l \times w \times h \), we can rearrange the formula to solve for width \( w \).
Starting with the formula: \[ V = l \times w \times h \]
We can isolate \( w \) by dividing both sides by \( l \times h \): \[ w = \frac{V}{l \times h} \]
So the rearranged formula to find the width \( w \) in terms of volume \( V \), length \( l \), and height \( h \) is: \[ w = \frac{V}{l \times h} \]
Let's go through it again step-by-step using the volume formula \( V = l \times w \times h \).
To find the width \( w \), the formula can be rearranged as follows:
Start with the volume formula:
\[
V = l \times w \times h
\]
To isolate \( w \), divide both sides of the equation by \( l \times h \):
\[
w = \frac{V}{l \times h}
\]
Thus, the correct rearranged formula to highlight the quantity of interest (the width \( w \)) is:
\[
w = \frac{V}{l \times h}
\]
If you have specific values you would like to substitute into this formula (like the values for volume, length, and height), please provide them, and we can calculate the width together.
