The volume of the rectangular parallelepiped is 720 dm³, and the height is 80 cm. Calculate the area of its base.

First, let’s translate the height of the rectangular parallelepiped from centimeters to decimeters.

1 dm = 10 cm, so we get:

80/10 = 8 dm.

In order to find out the area of the base of a given figure, you need to divide the indicated volume of the parallelepiped by the value of its height.

Thus, we get:

70/8 = 90 dm2

Answer: The area of the base of the parallelepiped is 90 dm2
