An orange crate is in the shape of a rectangular prism . It has a volume of  cubic units and has a base area of  square units. Find the height of the orange crate ?.

The correct answer is: Hence, the height of the prism is: 3x + 1.

Step 1 of 2:
The volume of a rectangular prism is:
The general formula is:

The base of the prism is: .
The general formula is,

Step 2 of 2:
Dividing the volume by the base area, we have the height. That is;

Substituting the values in the equation, we have:



Hence, the height of the prism is: 3x + 1.

Dividing two expressions and multiplying it with reciprocal of the second expression has the same effect.
