Let's say the number is x.

The equation will be:
1/3x + 12 = x
(one third of a number + 12 equals to the number)
Solving the equation:
subtract 1/3x from both sides:
12 = 2/3x
divide by 2
6 = 1/3x
multiply with 3
18 = x

Your number is 18, its one-third is 6, which is 12 less than the number itself.

bija089 [108]

The volume of the rectangular prism is

V=L\times W\times H

Where:

L is its length

W is its width

H is its height

From the given figure

L = 15.2 cm

W = 8 cm

H = 5.8 cm

Substitute them in the rule above

\begin{gathered} V=15.2\times8\times5.8 \\ V=705.28\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}

Round it to the nearest tenth

V=705.3\operatorname{cm}^3
