Suppose 7

Suppose a rectangular classroom is 16 feet long, 24 feet wide, and has a volume of 3,763 cubic feet. How high above the floor is the ceiling?

Correct answer:

c =  9.7995 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} a=16\text{ft} \\ b=24\text{ft} \\ V=3763{\text{ft}}^3 \\ V=abc \\ c=\frac{V}{a\cdot b}=\frac{3763}{16\cdot 24}=\frac{3763}{384}\text{ft}=9.7995\text{ft} \end{gathered}$$
