Answer :

itietje

The answer would be 8 inches.

Answer:

W = 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a rectangular prism is V= LWH,

we are given V = 528, L = 12, and H = 5 1/2.  Plug  them in and find W..

First convert 5 1/2 to an improper fraction

5 1/2 becomes 11/2

   528 = (12)(11/2)W

      528 = (132/2)W

        528 = 66W

            8 = W  (divide both sides by 66)
