8.75%

25x1.5=37.5

40.78/37.5= 1.0875
Subtract the 1 off for the product cost and it leaves 0.0875 for the tax

Answer:

2, 5, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by $V=l\cdot w\cdot h$ , where all variables to the right are dimensions of the prism.

Therefore, we're looking for three numbers that multiply to be 60.

Since the question stipulates that no side length may be 10, we have:
