To find the width of the box, we can use the formula for the volume of a right rectangular prism, which is V = length × width × height.
Given:
Volume = 162,000 cubic centimeters
Length = 90 cm
Height = 40 cm
Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:
162,000 = 90 × width × 40
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 90 × 40:
width = 162,000 / (90 × 40)
Simplifying the denominator:
width = 162,000 / 3,600
Therefore, the width of the box is 45 cm.
