The length of a rectangular parallelepiped is 8 1/3 cm, which is 5/6 cm longer than its width

The length of a rectangular parallelepiped is 8 1/3 cm, which is 5/6 cm longer than its width and 3 3/5 times less than its height. Calculate the volume of the rectangular parallelepiped.

1. Find the width of the parallelepiped by subtracting 5/6 from the width:
8 1/3 – 5/6 = 25/3 – 5/6 = 50/6 – 5/6 = 45/6 = 15/2 (cm).
2. Find the height of the parallelepiped by multiplying its length by 3 3/5:
8 1/3 * 3 3/5 = 25/3 * 18/5 = 5/1 * 6/1 = 30 (cm).
3. Now let’s find the volume of the parallelepiped by multiplying its height, length and width:
8 1/3 * 15/2 * 30 = 25/3 * 15/2 * 30 = 25/1 * 5/1 * 15 = 25 * 5 * 15 = 1875 (cm3).
