Answer:

Width: 13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the width of prism you would have to divide the volume of the prism by the area of the cross section.

First calculate the area of the cross section of the prism:

17 × 25.5= 433.5

Then divide the cross section area by the volume:

5635.5 ÷ 433.5= 13  

The width is 13 inches
