The height of the rectangular prism is 2 m. If its volume is 72 cubic meters, what is the area of the base, in square meters?

Base area is 36 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is V = (height)(length)(width).  We know all of these dimensions except for the area of the base, which is (length)(width).

Solving this equation for (length)(width), we get:

                                                       volume        72 m^3

(length)(width) = (area of base) = =  = 36 m^2

                                                         height          2 m
