The volume of a rectangular parallelepiped is 25.2 dm3. Base length 3.5 dm, width 16 cm Find its height.

Given:

V = 25.2 dm ^ 3,

b = 3.5 dm,

a = 16 cm.

Find – h.

Decision.

By definition of the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped:

V = a * b * h.

From the volume formula, we express the height of the parallelepiped:

h = V / (a * b).

Substitute the numerical values into the formula for the height. For this, it is necessary that the units of measurement of all linear dimensions are the same.

a = 16 cm = 1.6 dm.

1 cm = 0.1 dm.

h = 25.2 / (1.6 * 3.5) = 25.2 / 5.6 = 4.5 (dm).

Answer: h = 4.5 dm.
