Either you left something out of the conditions of the problem or there are three possible answers.
You could have a 10 by 8 face, an 8 by 15/2 face, and a 10 by 15/2 face, OR you could have a 10 by 6 face, a 6 by 40/3 face, and a 10 by 40/3 face, OR you could have a 10 by 8 face, a 10 by 6 face, and an 8 by 6 face.
Three different areas for the unspecified faces and three different volumes.
