Cuboid - ratios

The sizes of the edges of the cuboid are in the ratio 2: 3: 5. The smallest wall have area 54 cm2. Calculate the surface area and volume of this cuboid.

Correct result:

S =  558 cm2
V =  810 cm3

Solution:

a=2x b=3x c=5x ab=54 6x2=54 x=54/6=3 a=2⋅ x=2⋅ 3=6 b=3⋅ x=3⋅ 3=9 c=5⋅ x=5⋅ 3=15 S1=a⋅ b=6⋅ 9=54 S2=b⋅ c=9⋅ 15=135 S3=a⋅ c=6⋅ 15=90 S=2⋅ (S1+S2+S3)=2⋅ (54+135+90)=558 cm2
V=a⋅ b⋅ c=6⋅ 9⋅ 15=810 cm3
