The volume of a rectangular prism is (100x^16y^12z^2). If the length of the prism is 4x^2y^2 and its width is (5x^8y^7z^-2), how do you find the height of the prism y?

5x^6y^3z^4

Explanation:

width*length
(4x^2y^2)(5x^8y^7z^-2)
=20x^10y^9z^-2
height=volume÷width multiplied by length
(100x^16y^12z^2)/(20x^10y^9z^-2
=5x^6y^3z^4=h
check
Volume=width multiplied by length multiplied by height
(5x^8y^7z^-2)(4x^2y^2)(5x^6y^3z^4)
= 100x^16y^12z^2
