Math Problem Statement

Find the height of a cuboid whose volume is 275 cm³ and base area is 25 cm².

Solution

The question asks for the height of a cuboid with the following information:

  • The volume of the cuboid is 275 cm³.
  • The base area is 25 cm².

We can solve this by using the formula for the volume of a cuboid:

Volume=Base Area×Height\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}

We know the volume and the base area, so we can rearrange the formula to solve for the height:

Height=VolumeBase Area\text{Height} = \frac{\text{Volume}}{\text{Base Area}}

Substituting the given values:

Height=275cm325cm2=11cm\text{Height} = \frac{275 \, \text{cm}^3}{25 \, \text{cm}^2} = 11 \, \text{cm}

Therefore, the height of the cuboid is 11 cm.
