The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is given by V = lwh, where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
In this case, the volume V is given as 50 cubic feet and the height h is given as 4 feet. Plugging in these values into the formula, we have:
50 = lw(4)
We can solve this equation for the area of the base by dividing both sides by 4:
50/4 = lw
12.5 = lw
So, the area of the base is 12.5 square feet.
Monica is constructing a box in the shape of a right rectangular prism to hold grain on her farm. Use the formula for the volume of a rectanglar prism to find the area base when volume is 50 cubic feet and height is 4 feet
