Paul bakes raisin bars in a pan shaped like a rectangular prism. The volume of the pan is 252 cubic inches. The length of the pan is 12 inches, and its width is 1012 inches.What is the height of the pan?Enter your answer in the box.

Respuesta :

The volume of the pan is given by:

[tex]V=lwh[/tex]

since it is shaped as a rectangular prism.

In this case we know the volume, the length and the width; plugging this values we can find the height:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 252=(12)(1012)h \\ h=\frac{252}{(12)(1012)} \\ h=0.021 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the pan is 0.021 inches.
