Mary wants to make a box. She starts with a piece of cardboard whose length is 15 centimeters and width is 10 centimeters. Then she cuts 4 congruent squares with sides of 3 centimeters at the four corners and folded at the broken lines to make the box. What is the volume of the box?

Who cares, the little shit will have no future in this country. Better give her a cigar now as she will troon out in the future.

Let's see the perimeter of cardboard is 50 cm.

The area of the cardboard is 150 cm.

A box means 6 squares of equal size. Are we talking a cube or rectangular box?

Volume is length times width times height.

If 3 cm are the folds then it's 6 cm for each length. So two sides are already 6 cm by 6 cm. Or could be 3 by 3. Hmm.

10 divided by 4 is 2.5 and 15 divided by 4 is 3.75. 10 by 3.75 or 15 by 2.5.

12 by 2.5 by 3
7 by 3.75 by 3
4 by 3.75 by 6
9 by 2.5 by 6

Could be any of the 4 solutions.

The height will be 3cm because she cut the corners that long, width is 10-3-3 for the missing corner squares = 4cm, length is 15-3-3 = 9cm, so 3*4*9 = 108cm^3.
What's the prize for this anyway?

this is not congruent to the TV show because we didn't sit around going "UMM UHH ERRRM I KNOW THIS ONE LMAO HAHAHAHAHA" and then jeff foxworthy calls us a retarded faggot and the audience and all the kids laugh at us and we take ages to answer and our game has to be spread across three fucking episodes
