Question

The surface area of a rectangular prism is 250 cm 2. If its height is 10 meters, and its width is 5 meters, what is its volume?

Answer 1

\[A = 250cm ^{2}\]
Surface area of a rectangular prism.

\[A = 2(wh + lw +lh)\]
w = 5m Or 500cm
h = 10m or 1000cm
so..

\[250cm ^{2} = 2(500*1000 + l(500) + l(1000))\]
Solve for "l"

Once you have "l", use the volume equation of a rectangular prism.

\[V=lwh\]
