Find the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped if its width is 1.7 inches, its height is 0.3 inches less than its width, and its length is 2.4 times its width.

1. In order to find out what the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped is, you first need to calculate what its length, width and height are equal to. We know the width, it is 1.7 dm. We calculate what the length is equal to if it is 2.4 times the width.

1.7 * 2.4 = 4.08 dm.

2. Next, we can find out what the height of the rectangular parallelepiped is equal to, since, according to the condition of the problem, it is 0.3 dm less than its width.

1.7 – 0.3 = 1.4 dm.

3. Next, we calculate the volume of the rectangular parallelepiped. To do this, you need to find the product of its length, height and width.

1.7 * 4.08 * 1.4 = 9.7104 dm ^ 3.

Answer: The volume is 9.7 dm ^ 3.
