the areas of three faces of a rectangular box are 12 , 8 and 6. What is the volume of the box?
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "L*W = 12
\n" ); document.write( "L*H = 8
\n" ); document.write( "H*W = 6
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "L = 12/W
\n" ); document.write( "L*H = 8 --> 12H/W = 8 --> W = 3H/2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "H*W = 6
\n" ); document.write( "H*(3H/2) = 6
\n" ); document.write( "3H^2 = 12
\n" ); document.write( "H = 2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "W = 3H/2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "L = 12/W = 4
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Vol = 2*3*4 = 24 cubic units
\n" ); document.write( "
