The length of the rectangle of the parallelepiped is 20 cm, the height is 4 times less than the length

The length of the rectangle of the parallelepiped is 20 cm, the height is 4 times less than the length and the width is 7 cm more than the height, calculate the volume of the parallelepiped.

We will solve this task in steps and explain each of them in detail.

1) 20: 4 = 5 centimeters – the height of the rectangular parallelepiped, since it is 4 times less than its length, and the length is 20 centimeters;

2) 5 + 7 = 12 centimeters – the width of the rectangular parallelepiped, since it is 7 centimeters greater than its height, and the height is 5 centimeters;

3) 20 * 5 * 12 = 1200 cm ^ 3 – the area of a rectangular parallelepiped with a length of 20 centimeters, a width of 12 centimeters and a height of 5 centimeters.

Answer: 1200 cm ^ 3.
