The height of crate is 3 feet
Solution:
Given that Summer Dave builds a crate to hold vegetables
Volume of crate = 48 cubic feet
Base area of crate = 16 square feet
To find: height of crate
The crate is of shape cuboid
The volume of cuboid is given as:
[tex]volume = length \times width \times height[/tex]
We know that,
[tex]Area\ of\ base = length \times width[/tex]
Therefore, volume becomes,
[tex]volume = base\ area \times height[/tex]
Substituting the given values we get,
[tex]48 = 16 \times h\\\\h = \frac{48}{16}\\\\h = 3[/tex]
Thus height of crate is 3 feet
