The question can be answered using some simple formulas. Remember, the volume (V) of a box, or rectangular prism, is height (H) x Width (W) x Length (L). If the ends of the box are square, than H = W. Because you want to find out height, you can replace W in the formula with H: H X H X L = V H2 X L = V (Combine the Hs) H2 X 24 = 864 (Substitute the given values for the variable) H2 = 36 (Divide both sides by 24) H = 6 (Take the square root of both sides) Six is your final answer. You can check this by putting it back into the equation: 6 X 6 X 24 = 864 It works, so it must be correct.

What is the volume of cube that has an edge of 4 inches?
The volume of a square cuboid is length x height x width. A cube is a special type of cuboid in which all six faces are square. The three dimensions then become equal in length. So the volume of a cube is L3 where L is the length of any edge. The volume of a cube with an edge length of 4" is 43 = 64 in3 (or 64 cubic inches)
If the volume of a prism is 999 square inches what is the volume of a pyramid with the same base?
If the VOLUME is 999 SQUARE inches then you have gone wrong. SQUARE inches are a measure of AREA VOLUME is measured in CUBIC units. Assuming you meant The volume of a prism is 999 CUBIC inches, then the volume of a pyramid with the same height is indeterminate (cannot be given), as there is NO INDICATION of how the height of the pyramid relates to the height of the prism. So, ASSUMING you mean the volume of a prism is 999 CUBIC inches AND the HEIGHT of the pyramid is the same as the height of the prism, then the volume of the pyramid is one third that of the prism, ie 999 cu in ÷ 3 = 333 CUBIC inches.
What is the formula for finding the length if you have the volume height and width?
volume = length*height*width Rearrange the formula: length = volume/height*width
How do you find the height using the length the width and the volume?
height*length*width = volume Divide both sides by length*width to find the height: height = volume divided by length*width
What is the volume of a pyramid that has a base with an area of 36 square inches and a height of 15 inches?
Vol = 1/3*base*height = 36*15/3 = 180 cubic inches.
What is the volume of a square pyramid if the length is 5 inches and the height is 6 inches?
Volume = 50 in3
What is the volume of a square with the length of 6.2 inches the width of 4.8 inches and the height of 5.1 inches?
I don't think you mean the volume of a square. Perhaps the volume of a prism? For prisms, Volume = Length * Width * Height, so just multiply all three numbers together. And don't forget your units: inches ^3
The volume of fish tank with a square base is y³- 6y² plus 9y cubic inches The height is y Find the length of a side of the square base?
The volume of fish tank with a square base is y³ - 6y² + 9y cubic inches. The height is y. Find the length of a side of
Can you measure the volume of a square?
Volume of a square = length*width*height
How do you find the cubic inches in a box that is not square?
If it is a rectangular box, then volume = length*breadth*height, where each is measured in inches. If it is a cylindrical box, then pi*radius2*height, where the radius and height are measured in inches.
The volume of a box with a square base and a height of 12 inches is 768 inches cubed what is the length of one side of the base?
Volume = length x width x height base is a square, so length = width = side volume = side x side x height = side2 x height 768 = side2 x 12 side2 = 768/12 = 64 side = sqrt(64) = 8 in
How do you work out a square prism width and height when given volume and length?
Volume = Length x Width x Height. If the prism is square, then either Height = Width or Height = Length In the first case, Volume = Length x Width2 and so Width = sqrt(Volume/Length) and Height = Width. In the second case, Volume = Length2 x Width and so Width = Volume/Length2 and Height = Length.
What is the volume of the cube in inches?
Multiply the length/depth/height and your product will be in cubic inches. That is the volume.
What is the formula for calculating the volume of a box is?
Volume = (width x height) x length. For example take a cube with a height, width and length of six inches. First get the area of one side (6 x 6) which gives you 36 square inches. Then multiply by the length (36 x 6) which gives you 216 cubic inches and the volume of the cube.
How do you figure volume of a square area?
If it is a "square" area then you won't be looking for volume. However, if you are looking for the volume of a rectangular prism, it is simply: Width * Length * Height = Volume This simplifies to Length ^ 3 if you are trying to find the volume of a cube. If you are looking for the volume a square area takes depending on it's height, you can just take the area and multiply it by the height as well. (Width * Length) = Area (Width * Length) * Height = Volume Therefore: Area * Height = Volume
Do you have to put the square or cubic sign after inches and centimeters?
You have to put the square sign when you use area and the cubic sign when you use volume. Area= Length times Width Volume= Length times Width times Height
What is the volume of a cylinder with diameter of 10 inches and height of 12 inches?
Volume of a cylinder = pi*radius2*height Volume = 300*pi or 942.4777961 square inches
