Something that could be done is to tie a rope long enough to cross the river and send the two younger brothers across first, then have Mike pull the boat back across the river with the rope and him get in the boat and row it across the river with just himself and the gear.
Another option is you can unload some gear, put the boys in the boat, row them across the river, unload the two younger boys, go back for the rest of gear and load it into the boat then come back.
Hope this helps!

The dimension of the box is 50in by 10in by 15in
<h3>How to calculate the volume of a figure</h3>
The volume of an object is the quantity of substance it contains.
The formula for calculating the volume of the box is expressed as:
V = lwh
where:
- l is the length
- w is the width
- h is the height
Given the following parameters
length = 5w
height = w + 5
Substiute
7500 = 5w(w)(w+5)
7500 = 5w²(w+5)
1500 = w³+5w²
w³+5w² - 1500 = 0
<u>Factorize to determine the width</u>
On factorizing, the width of the box is 10 inches
Recall that:
l = 5w
l = 5(10)
l = 50inches
<u>Get the height</u>
h = w + 5
h = 10 + 5
h = 15inches
Hence the dimension of the box is 50in by 10in by 15in
