  1. Understand Problem: Understand the problem and identify the formula for volume.\newlineThe volume of a box (rectangular prism) is calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height.\newlineVolume = Length ×\times Width ×\times Height\newlineGiven: Volume = 10,00010,000 cm3^3, Length = 2525 cm, Width = 1010 cm.\newlineWe need to find the Height.
  2. Volume Formula: Rearrange the volume formula to solve for height.\newlineHeight=VolumeLength×Width\text{Height} = \frac{\text{Volume}}{\text{Length} \times \text{Width}}\newlinePlug in the given values.\newlineHeight=10,000cm325cm×10cm\text{Height} = \frac{10,000 \, \text{cm}^3}{25 \, \text{cm} \times 10 \, \text{cm}}
  3. Calculate Height: Perform the calculation to find the height.\newlineHeight = 10,000cm3÷(250cm2)10,000 \, \text{cm}^3 \div (250 \, \text{cm}^2)\newlineHeight = 40cm40 \, \text{cm}
