Front

If a rectangular prism has a volume of 240 in³ and a height of 10 in, what is the area of the base?

Back

Area of the base = Volume / height = 240 in³ / 10 in = 24 in².

Front

If the volume of a cylinder is 100π cm³ and the height is 10 cm, what is the radius?

Back

Radius = √(Volume / (π × height)) = √(100π / (π × 10)) = √10 cm.
