Question

If the volume of the given rectangular prism is 40 cu units, then its height is units.

• A. 44
• B. 10
• C. 160

Answer 1

The correct option is B 10

Area of the base = 4 sq units
Volume of the rectangular prism
= 40 cu units

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> ∵ Volume of a rectangular prism
= Area of the base x Height,

$\therefore$ Height = $\frac{\text{Volume of the prism}}{\text{Area of the base}}$
$=\frac{40}{4}$
$=10$ units

Thus, the height of the rectangular prism is 10 units.
