Respuesta :

Answer:

A- 2cm

Explanation:

The volume of a container is the amount of space it encloses.

Using the formula for volume of any container

V = L * W * H

V - volume of a container

L - length of the container

W - width of the container

H - height of the container

Using the information we are provided with

V = 60cm^3

L = 5cm

W = 6cm

H = ?cm

Using the formula

V = L * W * H

inserting the values given

60 = 5 * 6 * H

60 = 30 * H

60 = 30H

Divide through by 30, to get the value of H

60/ 30 = 30H/30

60/ 30 = H

H = 60/30

H = 2cm

The height of the container is 2cm.
