If the VOLUME of a rectangular prism is 945 cm 3 , then what is the value of the length X of the base?

the height is 15cm
width is 7cm

1 answer

To find the value of the length X of the base, we need to use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

Volume = Length x Width x Height

Given that the volume is 945 cm^3, the height is 15 cm, and the width is 7 cm, we can substitute these values into the formula:

945 cm^3 = X cm x 7 cm x 15 cm

Now, we can solve for X:

X = 945 cm^3 / (7 cm x 15 cm)

X = 945 cm^3 / 105 cm^2

X = 9 cm

Therefore, the value of the length X of the base is 9 cm.
