Postal regulations specify that a parcel sent by priority mail may have a combined length and girth of no more than 87 in. Find the dimensions of the cylindrical package of greatest volume that may be sent via priority mail. (I have changed all numbers, I am just trying to figure out how to find Raidus, Length, And volume)
