WHY (and HOW) did you hop on a 2005 thread? :shock:

Re: volume of solid, given height, depth, length

assuming that the board is rectangular, multiply length times width times depth.

I'm sorry to hear that this material was not covered in your classroom lectures or your textbook before this exercise was assigned. :shock:

To review how to find the volume V of a rectangular solid, given the height h, the length L, and the width (or depth) w, try here:

. . . . .Google results for "volume height length width"

Have fun!
