You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let x be width then lenght is 2x
\n" ); document.write( "area is A=x*2x=2x^2
\n" ); document.write( "lenght is made up of 4 sides so 8x
\n" ); document.write( "widht is made of 4 sides so 4x
\n" ); document.write( "total is 8x+4x =12x while 360-12x is remainng height
\n" ); document.write( "(360-12x)/(4)=90-3x is the height
\n" ); document.write( "volume=area*height=(2x^2)(90-3x)
\n" ); document.write( "180x^2-6x^3.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
