Cuboid edges

Calculate the volume and surface of a cuboid whose edge lengths are in the ratio 2: 3: 4 and the longest edge measures 10cm.

Correct result:

V =  375 cm3
S =  325 cm2

Solution:

a:b:c=2:3:4 a<b<c c=10 cm  c=4x x=c/4=10/4=52=2.5 a=2⋅ x=2⋅ 2.5=5 cm b=3⋅ x=3⋅ 2.5=152=7.5 cm  V=a⋅ b⋅ c=5⋅ 7.5⋅ 10=375 cm3
S=2⋅ (a⋅ b+b⋅ c+a⋅ c)=2⋅ (5⋅ 7.5+7.5⋅ 10+5⋅ 10)=325 cm2
