    With a rectangular prism with a length of 20 cm, height of 30 cm, and volume of 3600 cm, first set up the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism.

    V=bwh

    Then, plug in your known numbers

    3600=20*30*w

    Simplify

    3600=600w

    Use inverse operations to solve for w

    3600/600=6

    The width is 6 cm
