More rigorous time.
With each cut, one of the edge lengths decreases by 1. So, after 10 cuts the "total number of lengths" is [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] So, we will form an [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] by [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] by [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] rectangular prism such that [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula]
By AM-GM, [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] So, [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula] Thus the maximum volume is [unparseable or potentially dangerous latex formula]
