<PRE><B>Question 202176</B>
36  cubic  feet
.
Dimensions  are  L=2w,,W=w,  H=h
.
volume  = L*W*H= 2w*w*h=2w^2h =36,,,w^2h =18
.
Surface  area = 2w*w + 6w *h,,,,Area  of  base + perimeter *h
.
h,,,,,,,,,,w (sqrt 18/h),,,,,,SA (2w^2 +6wh)
.
1,,,,,,,,,,4.24,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,61.41
.
1.875,,,,,,3.098,,,,,,,,,,,,,,54.05
.
2,,,,,,,,,,3,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,54,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Min  SA,,,L=6,w=3,h=2
.
2.125,,,,,,2.910,,,,,,,,,,,,,,54.044
.
3,,,,,,,,,,2.449,,,,,,,,,,,,,,56.086
.
checking, vol = 3*6*2 = 36  ok</PRE>
