Basil the bumbling magician has done it again. Instead of pulling a rabbit out of a hat he pulled out rather smelly, ill tempered warthog. For now, he is keeping " Princess" in a cage with a volume of 27 cubic meters. If the sides are in whole meters only and the width is 3 meters, what are possible dimensions for the length and height?

What a convoluted question!

The cube root of 27 is 3.

The cage could be 3 by 3 by 3.

It could be 3 by 1 by 9.
