Armani · Answer 1

Answer the box was 12 in bc 20x240divided by 4 = 12

Camille Bowman · Answer 2

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = length * width * height

volume = (length * width) * height

volume = (area of base) * height

height = volume / (area of base)

height = (240 in^3) / (20 in^2) = 12 in
