The sum of the lengths of all the edges of the rectangular parallelepiped is 112 cm

The sum of the lengths of all the edges of the rectangular parallelepiped is 112 cm, its two dimensions are 14 cm and 9 mm. Find the third dimension of the box.

A rectangular parallelepiped is a figure that has 3 spatial dimensions that characterize its dimensions: width, length and height. Each of these values is used 2 times when calculating the sum of the lengths of all edges of a rectangular parallelepiped. Subtracting from the given value twice the sum of two known measurements, you can get twice the value of the third dimension of the parallelepiped.

That is, 112 – (14 + 9) * 2 = 66 cm.

From where the desired third dimension of the parallelepiped is calculated: 66/2 = 33 cm.
