im wanting to know how you would calculate a side of a box with 2 sides and the volume already defined. how would i go about this? the two sides are 14" (355.6mm) and 14 1/4" (362.4 mm) with the desired volume being 73.61 in3 (1.21 liters). what would be the length of the remaining side?

    V=14 x 14 1/4 x third side

    third side=73.61/(14)(14 1/4)=0.369 inches

    God bless you.
