  • Answer

Cube ABCDEFGH,ABCDEFGH, labeled as shown below, has edge length 11 and is cut by a plane passing through vertex DD and the midpoints MM and NN of AB‾\overline{AB} and CG‾\overline{CG} respectively. The plane divides the cube into two solids. The volume of the larger of the two solids can be written in the form pq,\tfrac{p}{q}, where pp and qq are relatively prime positive integers. Find p+q.p+q.
